The site benefits from a well-connected central Cambridge location which the proposals seek to further enhance through improved connectivity to and through the site. Following the assessment of an open Expression of Interest, 4 to 5 practices will be invited to proceed to the ideas phase of the competition. An honorarium of £1,500 plus VAT will be paid to each shortlisted team. 01 The winning team will be appointed to develop their ideas to RIBA Stage 2 at which point the scheme will be detailed and delivered by R H Partnership Architects and the delivery team.
