Studying Cambridge's Transport Future
The
Draft Structure Plan for the period up to year 2016 proposes that 50,000 new
jobs will be created and about 42,000 new homes built in the Cambridge
sub-region.� This will be accompanied by a substantial growth in travel
demand.
The already congested and under-funded transport system will be
unable to cope unless there is major investment. Cambridgeshire County Council
has estimated that �1bn needs to be spent on transport.
Cambridge Futures 2 aims to study the transport options for the
Cambridge sub-region. You can find a summary of the study results by clicking
the Futures 2 link at the top of the page.

proposals by visiting our

Cambridge Futures - The
First Project
The original Cambridge Futures
project examined seven scenarios for the future development of Cambridge -
from "no change" through to developing a new town nearby, building along
transport corridors or concentrating new development in the city.
In each scenario, the effects on the economy, social equity, environmental
quality and transport were modelled. Find out more!
