Cambridge Northern Fringe East AAP - Issues and Options

Respondent: Brookgate

Agent: Bidwells

Representation Summary:

The City Council have a preference for cycle parking to be provided using Sheffield Stands. Increasingly double stacking racks are being installed and used at rail stations and are widely used new residential and non-residential developments. Double stackers provide added benefits, maximising cycle parking provision and making the most efficient use of limited space. It is suggested that the Cambridge City cycle parking standards are updated to reflect the increased use and popularity of double stackers. The provision of a high proportion of cycle parking using double-stackers would maximise the efficient use of the CNFE site.

Respondent: Cambridgeshire County Council

Representation Summary:

The ability to park a cycle in a safe, secure, and convenient location is a key aspect of encouraging and supporting travel by bike.Cycle parking provision at least in line with standards will be required. However, further more detailed analysis will be needed on cycle mode share and targets to determine an appropriate level that seeks to maximise cycle access to the area. This is likely to confirm a level of provision in excess of standards given the high levels of non-car mode split likely to be required but as noted this will require further, more detailed, analysis.

Respondent: Turnstone Estates Limited

Agent: Carter Jonas

Representation Summary:

Turnstone take the view that in order to achieve the modal share targets envisaged, high levels of cycle parking provision will be required. As a starting point the standards in the emerging Local Plan (Policy 82 and Appendix L) should be adopted, but Turnstone agrees that there may be scope for higher levels of provision in close proximity to the railway station interchange.
