S/DS: Development strategy
Representation ID: 58650
Received: 13/12/2021
Respondent: North Hertfordshire District Council
At this stage in the plan making process, the Council does not wish to make any detailed comments about the proposed development strategy set out in the consultation document, given that the significant proposals are situated to the north of Cambridge and there will be a more limited impact for North Hertfordshire.

S/GC: Genome Campus, Hinxton
Representation ID: 58666
Received: 13/12/2021
Respondent: North Hertfordshire District Council
Any proposed development along or close to the A505 will have an impact on North Hertfordshire, positively in terms of increased employment opportunities or negatively in terms of additional traffic using the A505. The significant employment sites at Duxford, Granta Park, the Wellcome Genome Campus and the Babraham Institute are currently only accessible by car from North Hertfordshire. The recommendations from the current A505 corridor studies could have a bearing on the attractiveness of these sites to North Herts residents and on traffic levels through North Herts.

BG/GI: Green infrastructure
Representation ID: 58681
Received: 13/12/2021
Respondent: North Hertfordshire District Council
In an action coming out of our local plan examination, the Council has agreed with Natural England to prepare a mitigation strategy for the Therfield Heath SSSI, to the west of Royston. The Heath is a sensitive location and additional recreational pressures arising from developments, particularly within the SSSI Zones of Influence will need to be considered in the future.

J/NE: New employment and development proposals
Representation ID: 58685

Respondent: North Hertfordshire District Council
Any proposed development along or close to A505 will impact on North Hertfordshire, positively in terms of increased employment opportunities or negatively in terms of additional traffic using the A505.
A10 is most direct route for North Herts residents to Cambridge and the Cambridge Biomedical Campus. With the Campus set to expand, residents in North Herts will be well placed to take jobs or use facilities at Campus. Additional trips by car on A10 would significantly negatively impact on Royston.

I/ST: Sustainable transport and connectivity
Representation ID: 58687

Respondent: North Hertfordshire District Council
Pressure on A10 may be relieved to some extent by Cambridge South railway station. But will create different pressures in North Hertfordshire, in terms of passenger throughput and access to its stations – Royston, Ashwell & Morden, Baldock, Letchworth and Hitchin. Although the onus will be on North Herts, Hertfordshire and Great British Railways to address those pressures, those bodies will need data from the Greater Cambridge Planning Service to help quantify those pressures and respond appropriately to them – in terms of timely funding and installation of enhanced cycling and walking infrastructure at the stations.

S/RRA: Allocations in the rest of the rural area
Representation ID: 58711
Received: 13/12/2021
Respondent: North Hertfordshire District Council
During our local plan examination, the Council has recognised that continuous, incremental growth for the towns and villages in North Hertfordshire may not be the most appropriate growth strategy in the future. It has also already resolved to fully explore options for a new settlement in the longer term. Other Hertfordshire authorities are similarly constrained in their ability to meet future development needs and this could result in outward pressure for growth.
