1 NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY
1.1 This Technical Note has been prepared by Transport Planning Associates in order to provide further analysis of the transport planning evidence base prepared by Alan Baxter Associates (ABA) and others on behalf of SmithsonHill in the context of the relevant reasons for refusal of SmithsonHill’s outline planning application to South Cambridgeshire District Council for a park for AgriTech in Hinxton.
1.2 The Council’s principal allegations are that:
