Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options
S/RRA: Allocations in the rest of the rural area
Representation ID: 59476
Received: 09/12/2021
Respondent: Hertfordshire County Council
Hertfordshire County Council would be keen to ensure the sites of ‘Land to the West of Cambridge Road’ and ‘The Moor Lane, Melbourn’ are fully integrated into the proposed Melbourn Greenway and A505 Walking and Cycling bridge, to facilitate an active travel link between these sites, Cambridge to the north and Royston to the south. HCC would want to support the proposed bus network improvements suggested, to better facilitate cross border routes and trips. HCC are pleased that work on these improvements seems to be ongoing, and we are committed to working with the Greater Cambridge Partnership to deliver these important sustainable transport links.
