Where are they to be located and their skilled workers housed. Services will grow to support them adding to the key worker/affordable housing deficit. In particular the infrastructure shortfall will move from acute to chronic. Doing nothing is not an option

I believe we need to discuss how we organise our city as well as its size.

I also want to say that I do not regard current spending cuts, including mass cuts to buses throughout the county, as an expression of localism. True localism requires fiscal autonomy for local government, respect for human rights including the right to transport, and full representation of groups such as bus
users.

Quite apart from the strain on any other parts of the city's infrastructure, one has to say that traffic is already an overwhelming problem. No more traffic please - and beyond the widening of the A14 'bottleneck', no more roads either.

As plans for Cambourne have shown, initial plans state this many houses , estates etc and then the plans are changed further down the line to allow more expansion or higher density not envisaged or agreed at first. Huge expansion of Cambridge as proposed will result in urban creep and ruin the character of the city.

The Lib Dems are pursuing too vigorous, and an unsustainable growth agenda. I support Cllr. Hipkin's remarks in principle, and the Green Party believes jobs should not solely be focussed in the South East of England, but that we need a manufacturing industry nationwide, in areas of high unemployment. The transition to a green economy, with renewable energy generation as a priority, would create a million jobs, and something we should pursue.

It's a special place and we're not so well off for those in this country that we can afford to trash them for short-term gain. It showed just how 'desperately needed' the housing at Northstowe was when the recession begun. As soon as there was no prospect of a quick buck, the plans went straight back in the fridge.

And are we any the worse off for that? No.
