Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 57843

Received: 11/12/2021

Respondent: Dr Anna Gannon

Representation Summary:

S/RSC/HW Land between Hinton Way and Mingle Lane, Great Shelford

This is Green Belt, to be respected: if breached, more development will follow. Proposed development is on boundary of parishes of Great Shelford and Stapleford, so would merge the two into one settlement.. During COVID, path along suggested site was much used by residents: need to protect green spaces. Great local opposition because of poor access (Mingle *Lane*: 20m/ph / Hinton Way dangerously congested already) ..I have concerns regarding: water shortage, inadequate wastewater infrastructure; loss of arable land (considering UK food production needs); damage to our ecology/wildlife, pollution form development.
