Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options
S/DS: Development strategy
Representation ID: 59048

Respondent: Emmanuel College

Emmanuel College Sports Ground, Wilberforce Road, Cambridge (HELAA site 40380)
The College support including allocations within Cambridge City that can be well-located to bus routes, cycle paths, pedestrian paths, jobs, services and facilities, but objects to only one such modest new allocation. It results in a reliance on too few sites to deliver the significant majority of the Local Plan housing need. To re-risk a failure to deliver the housing requirement or a rolling five-year housing supply, it needs to allocate more smaller-sustainable sites; to add resilience to the housing supply by introducing more sites that can come forward at different stages in the housing market and economic cycles.

The College support including allocations within Cambridge City that can be well-located to bus routes, cycle paths, pedestrian paths, jobs, services and facilities, but objects to only one such modest new allocation. An additional site to be allocated is Land at Wilberforce Road (40380). This Concept Layout shows it can be repurposed in such a way as to introduce significant new public open space and delivered with a landowner in a manner to help the Council meet its Big Themes underpinning the emerging Local Plan.
