Development Partner for the Cambridge Northern Fringe East Project

Tender description

We are looking for a development partner who shares the council and Anglian Water's joint vision for a new and innovative quarter for Cambridge, creating a high quality, attractive and sustainable place to live, work, learn and play through a high density residential and mixed use development graced by impressive design and public realm. Like other cities, Cambridge has specific challenges around housing, affordable housing and transport. This 49 hectare site is one of the last large-scale brownfield development regeneration sites suitable for housing development in Cambridge. The location beside the new Cambridge North station, the guided bus way, and the Chisholm Trail, make this a highly accessible and sustainable location. Should we be successful in achieving national infrastructure funding and the associated relocation of the wastewater recycling centre, the proposed housing benefits from the core site are approximately 5,200 new homes, with the potential for a further 2,400 homes on adjacent separately owned nearby sites.
