Cambridge Northern Fringe East AAP - Issues and Options

Representation ID: 30144

Received: 02/02/2015

Respondent: Urban&Civic Ltd

Agent: David Lock Associates

Representation Summary:

There are no strong preferences on the options but the overarching objective to create a transformative gateway with a strong employment focus should remain consistent.
Option 1 (Lower Level of Redevelopment) is unlikely to deliver the full potential of the CNFE area and associated developments in the Greater Cambridge area. It would limit the development potential, the infrastructure and connectivity improvements and the role of the new station. It could be considered as an early phase of the development but greater ambition is required to deliver a transformational gateway regeneration scheme.
