Brookgate has won planning consent to redevelop Station Square in Cambridge as part of its CB1 masterplan.
The plans will see the area around the Cambridge Station pedestrianised, with a bus-only connection between Station Road and the new Bus Interchange, and a drop-off and pick-up area for 21 taxis.
CB1 is a 25-acre development that includes offices, hotels, retail and leisure. The developer won planning consent on the fourth attempt in November for a 133,000 sq ft office-led development at 50-60 Station Road.
A spokesperson said: “Receiving planning permission for our proposals is a significant step forward for CB1. Station Square will create a gateway for Cambridge, significantly improving the area around the train station and making a real difference for local residents, visitors and commuters alike, while the Northern Access Road will facilitate the delivery of a number of the public benefits of the CB1 masterplan.”
