Although the CS mentions issues with water supply and sewage in Ipswich it fails to address these, focussing only on SUDs for managing water run-off. Fresh water and sewage infrastructure should be included since both have previously been identified by the Haven Gateway Water Cycle Study as key issues for Ipswich and mentioned in the NALEP 2014 Strategic Economic Plan. Paragraph 6.92 of the latter confirms that the scale and cost of major new connections in relation to water supply and wastewater infrastructure (including treatment plant), is inhibiting the progress of some strategic Ipswich sites.
