Cambridge City Council has recommended that the plans to demolish the Beehive Centre and replace it with offices, labs, and community spaces be refused. The council's planning officer highlighted concerns about reduced daylight and sunlight for nearby residents, which could adversely affect their quality of life. Railpen, the site owner, aimed to create a 'workplace and innovation cluster' expected to generate 3,000 jobs. However, local residents expressed concerns about accessibility and the loss of essential retail services in an already deprived area.
The proposed redevelopment would significantly reduce daylight and sunlight for nearby residents, potentially impacting their quality of life.
Railpen envisioned a project that would create a new hub for the local community, including an estimated 3,000 jobs and training opportunities.
