South Cambridgeshire refused this application for the reasons on the decision notice; only the applicant can appeal, and refused schemes often return in revised form. More in our guide to what happens after a planning decision.

Prior approval applies where permitted development rights already grant the principle of the work, leaving the council only the specific matters the rules name, commonly within 56 days. More in our guide to planning application types.

  EIA Screening Opinion under the Town and Country Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations 2017 for a new non-motorised shared use path (also referred to as a Greenway) for use by cyclists, pedestrians and where possible horse-riders, linking Sawston to Cambridge city centre, via the villages of Great Shelford and Stapleford. From north to south, the Greenway would begin in Cambridge at the intersection between Long Road (A1134) and Robinson Way on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus (CBC), extending along Robinson Way and then following Francis Crick Avenue south to join the Genome Path. The route would then follow the Genome Path until linking into the village of Great Shelford at Charston Road and passing behind Shelford train station. Exiting Great Shelford, the route goes south-east through Stapleford village connecting to London Road (A1301).
