Received: 21/07/2016

Respondent: Cambridge Association of Architects

Representation Summary:

Orientation (front/back) should be clearly highlighted on the illustrative plan - in order to avoid creating enclosed courtyards giving their back to the street - as might happen around 'Mill Park' (and not be mistaken with the "colleges inspired" inward looking residential courts)

Mill Road Depot Draft Planning and Development Brief SPD

Representation ID: 31076

Received: 19/07/2016

Respondent: Historic England

Representation Summary:

Paragraph 4.7.3 and paragraph 4.7.5 We welcome the statement that buildings should be orientated to overlook streets and public spaces with layouts following best practice guidance such as Secure by Design. Has consideration been given to the possibility of routing the Chisholm cycle trail through the main spine of the development as part of the Eagle Foundry Walk in order to ensure that it is adequately overlooked and secure? However, we recognise that this is more a matter for the County Council in their transport planning role.
