Last autumn the County Council consulted about a residents’ parking scheme in “Coleridge West” (the northern side of Cherry Hinton Road up to and including Coleridge Road, the southern side of Mill Road from the railway bridge to Coleridge Road and all streets in-between.)
The response rate was low & the majority in favour very small but the Council decided to press on and advertised a Traffic Regulation Order.
All representations received in response to the publication of the Traffic Order, will be reported to the Cambridge Joint Area Committee and published on the County Council website as part of the agenda for their meeting (CJAC - 24/07/18).

This committee has both City and County Council members and they will decide whether to go ahead or not at their meeting at Shire Hall, Cambridge at 4.30pm on Tuesday 24th July 2018. 

After decades of talk, the Chisholm Trail is finally beginning to take shape and work is actually starting on the northern part of the Trail.

Last year’s County Council parking consultation has resulted in a narrow majority for a residents’ parking scheme in Romsey and Coleridge, although the response rate was low. In spite of this, the Council has decided to move to the next stage, which is to advertise a Traffic Regulation Order for the scheme in the local paper and in the street (look out for notices on lamp posts). The notices will invite comments from anyone, whether resident in the area or elsewhere.

The Boundary Commission has been reviewing the divisions by which County Councillors are elected and made their decision known on 9th February.  They will be used for the elections in 2017.

After two workshops involving local residents and councillors, a draft document has been drawn up giving supplementary planning guidance to those who wish to develop the Ridgeon’s site on Cromwell Road.  This will go out to public consultation for six weeks starting on 18th  

On the 30th November there was a special meeting of the City Council last Monday to approve a new consultation on some modifications to the local plan.  This was agreed unanimously and the consultation has now started and, with a pause over the Christmas period, will continue till Monday 25th January.

Those going down Cromwell Road in the last few days may have missed seeing the line of silver birches outside Pym Court, the new development nearest to Coldhams Lane.   But they would also have noticed a line of newly planted trees in their place.
