S/RSC/HW Land between Hinton Way and Mingle Lane, Great Shelford
I would like to register my strong opposition to the site in Great Shelford. Exceptional circumstances have NOT been shown to release this land. Transport links are inadequate - one train an hour into Cambridge and buses unreliable. You seem to suggest everyone living here will work at the Cambridge Biomedical Campus - utter nonsense. Two hundred more cars on Mingle Lane, more congestion when the train barriers are down and more hazards for children cycling to Sawston Village College. This chalk farmland should be preserved and our already meagre water supplies preserved.
