New developments should be aiming for a zero net impact on road traffic.
The inevitable increase in car trips generated by the new community must be offset in the existing community by a modal shift from car to sustainable alternatives.
Please see attached document
Summary:
*Impact the development will have on the local road network, and the modal shift required to offset that impact.
*Inadequacy of the proposed mitigations.
*Role of a railway station in stimulating modal shift.
*Opportunity to improve the urban environment of Cherry Hinton by re-routing through traffic away from the village.
*Requirement for walking and cycle routes to be available from when residents first move in.
