Mill Road Depot Draft Planning and Development Brief SPD

Representation ID: 31044

Received: 21/07/2016

Respondent: Cambridge Association of Architects

Representation Summary:

This space is located north of the bridge as it rises, and therefore means that the space will be mostly shaded. While the trees may provide amenity and noise screening, the sun-lit useable portion of the open space is narrowed to rising or setting sun only. It is advised to run a sun path study to conclude overshading. In such case the conclusions drawn there is of little use for this space, a central 'Mill Park' will benefit from a larger space in its place.
