Cambridge City Council and South Cambridgeshire District Council are committed to preparing a joint Local Plan for their combined districts (Greater Cambridge). This video covers what a Local Plan is, what some people think about the key opportunities, issues and challenges facing the area and what happens next.

A Local Plan sets out an overall strategy for the pattern, scale and quality of development. It also covers key land uses. This includes housing (including affordable housing), employment, retail, leisure and other commercial development, infrastructure for transport and other key utilities, community facilities, and the conservation and enhancement of the natural, built and historic environment.
