The Design Process

Following a resolution to grant consent by the Northstowe Joint Development Control Committee on 24 October 2012, South Cambridgeshire District Council (SCDC) granted outline planning permission (OPP) on 22 April 2014 for phase 1 of Northstowe New Town at land south of Longstanton Park and Ride. Application for approval of reserved matters (Appearance, landscaping, access, layout and scale) for 152 dwellings including 25% affordable
housing following outline planning permission S/0388/12/OL, the outline permission (ref: S/0388/12/OL) was an EIA application accompanied by an environmental statement.
Reserved matters for Parcel H11 were granted in June 2017 and
development has since begun on site.
