This option will enable denser and taller development of high quality to create a modern vibrant imaginative city quarter. This would also contribute to the financial viability of Development Options 3 and 4. Equally, it will enhance the environmental quality of the area and surrounding existing neighbourhoods (especially Milton and Milton Country Park). Higher viability and critical mass are essential to achieve excellent master planning of the site and community benefits through development levies applied.

It is self-evident that this should be implemented from the design stage onwards.

We support the application of the relevant open space standards, but wish also to emphasise that the development must be integrated into the wider landscape through the improvement and development of green infrastructure beyond the currently identified site boundary. This should include the creation of a strategic accessible landscape/green space area along the River Cam Corridor and linking Milton Country Park (akin to developments to the south and west of Cambridge).

We support the general principles described, but we are doubtful that the site can fulfill its development potential without the provision of direct access from the A14, and urge the local authorities to investigate this option in the near future.

This issue needs significant attention - in particular good linkages for pedestrians and cyclists and, potentially, horse riders should be achieved to the eastern boundary of the site linking with the River Cam Corridor (and its special neighbourhood) and Milton Country Park (including proper wide tunnel etc under or bridge over the A14 adjacent to the River Cam).
Effective and sympathetic solutions need to be found to link with existing neighbourhood to south of the new Guided Bus Route and the River Cam/ Chisholm Cycle Trail.

This option will create ad-hoc development picking the best development options for the early phase and leaving less viable options for later phases.
