Good morning
I am writing regarding Anglian Water’s Development Consent Order (DCO) application for the Cambridge Waste Water Treatment Plant Relocation Project (CWWTPRP). Yesterday, the Secretary of State for the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, Rt Hon Steve Reed OBE MP, postponed the determination decision for CWWTPRP. A decision is now expected to be made on 14 April 2025.
The further extension is to enable the application to be analysed in light of the revision of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), which was formalised on 12 December 2024. A full copy of the Secretary of State’s statement can be found here: Written statements – Written questions, answers and statements – UK Parliament.
The relocation of the waste water treatment plant will enable South Cambridgeshire District Council and Cambridge City Council to develop a new low-carbon city district on Cambridge’s last major brownfield site located in North East Cambridge. The new district could deliver 8,350 homes and 15,000 new jobs.
