Key issues
Key problems to raise:
- Babraham Road: 2m-wide shared use path
- Babraham Road: buildouts like those on King's Hedges Road - 3-3.5m
- Babraham Road: Toucan crossing outside the development contains dog-leg arrangement and is multiple stage
- Lack of clarity where cycle parking will go - surely not all in the area by the entrance to the site?
- Main entrance into the development from Babraham Road has pavement on one site only
