Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 57885

Received: 12/12/2021

Respondent: Mr Manfred Brod

Representation Summary:

Area S/CBC/A is unsuitable for housing, being partly underwater much of each winter. Suggest to restrict housing to south of the present line of Granham's Road (which is apparently to be rerouted to the south anyway) and use S/CBC/A for recreational purposes. A sump of some sort - a boating lake??? - would help drainage both north and south of the field, and notably the already problematic situation on the built Ninewells estate.
