Bicester Motion hosts public exhibition on proposed 10-year investment plan

Bicester Motion welcomed circa 80 people to its public exhibition on Friday 12 June to provide local residents, businesses and stakeholders with an opportunity to view and discuss its proposed 10-year investment plan for the estate.

Held at Bicester Motion, the exhibition showcased the proposed masterplan vision, which seeks to support future investment in the estate, create new jobs, deliver additional workspace for pioneering mobility businesses, introduce new apartments alongside a hotel, enhance biodiversity across the site, and boost the economy by circa £1 billion per annum.

Ridge, Edgars, Nicholsons, Stantec, Motion, Aurochs Ecology, Worlledge Associates and LDA Design acted on behalf of Bicester Motion.

Visitors were able to view the proposals, meet members of the project team and ask questions about the plans.

Consultation details

The public consultation remains open until 23.00 on Thursday 25 June and Bicester Motion has encouraged anyone who has not yet had the opportunity to view the proposals to do so online and provide feedback.

Following the close of consultation, all comments received will be reviewed and considered by the project team. Bicester Motion will then publish a consultation feedback report summarising what people said and how that feedback has informed the evolution of the proposals.

Comments

Daniel Geoghegan, chief executive, Bicester Motion, said: “Thank you to everyone who took the time to attend our public exhibition and share their thoughts on the proposals. We were pleased to welcome so many people and have constructive conversations about the future of Bicester Motion.

“As custodians of this unique estate, we are committed to listening to our neighbours, local businesses and wider stakeholders. Their feedback is an important part of helping us shape plans that support long-term investment, jobs and opportunities, while respecting the estate’s heritage and its role within the local community.”
