the great fen masterplan map
TRANSCRIPT

The maps on previous pages have been combined to create the single masterplan map seen opposite. It reveals the scope and complexity of access the partners intend to provide as the project develops. As described in earlier sections, access to and around the Great Fen can only be achieved with the support and involvement of local landowners and in continued consultation with providers and users.
The partners will bring forward detailed plans for access at the appropriate time. Site-specific investigations of access may result in different routes from those shown here. In particular access to and around the visitor centre may change significantly as plans for the building and surrounding landscape are developed.
The Great Fen Masterplan Map
The masterplan map shows how the different modes of access are integrated with each other and how they link to local communities, village-based facilities and the future Great Fen visitor centre.
