Outline planning permission for the Trumpington Meadows development on Cambridge's southern fringe was issued on 9 October 2009.
Trumpington Meadows development proposals included:
- demolishing the former Monsanto buildings in Cambridge
- building 1200 new homes and a primary school
- creating a 60 hectare country park between Trumpington and Hauxton Mill
- two new road accesses
- a primary school including a community facility
- a local centre
- new and improved footpaths and cycleways
- open space, recreation facilities and children's play space
The Trumpington Meadows site has 40% affordable housing, thanks to a deal between the local authorities, BPHA (representing Cambridgeshire Partnerships) and the developers/owners of the site.
The Trumpington Meadows development was the first of 4 proposed housing developments for the southern fringe of Cambridge to receive outline planning permission.
