Decision details

To agree the Council’s response to Cambridgeshire County Council’s consultation on the third Local Transport Plan (LTP).

The Planning Portfolio Holder AGREED the following amendments to the District Statement by South Cambridgeshire District Council for inclusion within the Cambridgeshire Local Transport Plan 3:

(A)         The first sentence of paragraph 1.3 to read: “In some parts of the district public transport is good, mostly along the main roads or ‘corridors’. However, there are many villages where access to a bus or train service is poor, absent or under threat of cancellation because of subsidy removal.

(B)        The end of paragraph 6.4 was amended to read: “… it is crucial for the Councils to continue to work with partners in order to manage change effectively, including consultation with voluntary transport providers, for example voluntary community car schemes.”

(C)        The last sentence in paragraph 7.3 was amended, so that the sentence reads: “Improvements to this junction will be delivered as part of the Cycle Cambridge programme.”

(D)        The first sentence of paragraph 7.4 was amended to read: “… now largely well developed.”
