Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 56510

Received: 15/11/2021

Respondent: Mrs Catherine Martin

Representation Summary:

‘Ensure that the location, scale and design of development, protects and enhances the character, visual amenity and historic significance of river corridors and connected locations, including in particular considering views to and from rivers.’ If the CWWTPR goes ahead and is sited on Honey Hill, visitors will walk from Baits Bite Lock and see a huge industrial structure looming over the landscape. There will also be the problem of odour which will reduce the enjoyment of many existing footpaths in that area, including walks to Anglesey Abbey and Quy Fen SSSI.
