The new developments
This new section will be expanded in future weeks and months.
There are a lot of proposals and plans for new housing developments in the Cambridge area, all of which have an impact for cycling as they draw in more people all of whom will need or want to travel, to work, to school, to shop, and for leisure. Ensuring they have high-quality cycling conditions, and are linked to other places, particularly Cambridge, is an important part of guaranteeing that the impact of new developments is not manifested as gridlock in Cambridge.
Our new paper, Cycling in New Developments, describes how developers should aim to provide for cycling in Cambridge.
Cambridge Cycling Campaign tries to keep up with what is being proposed – not an easy task – and to comment critically on proposals at an early enough stage to be able to exert some influence on the plans – an even harder task. We would very much welcome assistance with this task.
The map below and accompanying text summarise the size and status of most of those developments which we know about.
Our discussion groups
We have a number of discussion groups, open to members only.
These are linked from the main pages above.
Map of the developments
This map shows some of the proposed new developments, marked in orange.
