NIAB Development Drop-in Meeting, Saturday February 11th, 3-5 pm
Over 5,000 homes and 2,000 units of student accommodation are planned on Cambridge's northwest fringe. Over the coming months communities will be engaged, can find out more information and have a say on topics that affect them most. The next event is a public 'drop-in', which will provide an opportunity to meet and chat to the people working on the development of the sites, including the developers and the Local Authority Officers dealing with the planning applications. The public drop in on 11th February will focus on the NIAB site, situated between Histon and Huntingdon Road where developers are keen to provide an update on their proposals. The event will be held on Saturday 11th February from 3 pm - 5 pm at St Augustines Church Hall, Richmond Road, Cambridge, CB4 3PS.
