Policy 17, Part g) promotes the construction of a new pedestrian and cycle bridge over the railway
to provide direct access to Chesterton Fen to the east of the railway line, and onwards to the
River Cam tow path.

GCSP will need to engage with Network Rail with regards to the proposed new pedestrian and cycle
bridge. This will enable Network Rail to advise on the railway industry review and approval
processes which would be associated to any proposed bridge scheme over railway infrastructure.

In relation to Policy 19, it is acknowledged that the proposed safeguarding of land is indicative
at this stage, however, as it is currently shown in Figure 38 the shaded area is wholly Network
Rail owned land including Network Rail’s station lease area and operational railway land. Any
proposed safeguarding of the land would need to be agreed with Network Rail and further
engagement with Network Rail is required on this matter as and when it progresses.

Network Rail is the freehold owner of the Aggregates Railheads located in North East Cambridge. Any
future potential relocation of the railhead would be discussed between Network Rail, DB Cargo UK
Limited and their tenant Tarmac. Network Rail will engage with the GCSP if any
changes to the railhead are proposed.
