Cambridge Northern Fringe East AAP - Issues and Options

Representation ID: 29834

Received: 31/01/2015

Respondent: Cambridge Association of Architects

Representation Summary:

Evidence has not been provided to illustrate that the Water Recycling Centre could be suitably contained to make the site an attractive area to live. Subject to this, we would support the proposal for a mixed use site. The current zonal planning of the residential areas as shown on the plan need additional design. It seems a shame not to pull the green protected open space over the busway and give the whole area around the station room to become a series of attractive public spaces relating to the new residential uses.
