Oxford Core Strategy 2026 Adopted March 2011 SPATIAL PORTRAIT VISION AND OBJECTIVES THE SPATIAL FOREWORD STRATEGY AND STRATEGIC LOCATIONS FOR DEVELOPMENT While many cities aspire to be world class, residents in Oxford know that our city is RESPONDING TO CLIMATE CHANGE in many respects already world class. Oxford’s unique heritage draws visitors from PROVIDING around the world. Its universities and hospitals have an internationally renowned INFRASTRUCTURE TO SUPPORT NEW research base, and many products or services made in Oxford are known worldwide. DEVELOPMENT But this success brings challenges, and none greater than delivering much-needed PROMOTING affordable housing which is in such short supply in our city. SOCIAL INCLUSION AND IMPROVING QUALITY OF LIFE The Core Strategy is our overarching strategy for the way we will look at developing MAINTAINING A BALANCED Oxford over the next 15 years. Oxford needs to develop, while preserving those HOUSING SUPPLY aspects which make it such a wonderful place to live and work. The Core Strategy STRENGTHENING will help to manage change sympathetically and will help deliver this Council’s vision PROSPERITY for growth and regeneration in Oxford. It sets out policies and proposals relating to IMPLEMENTING AND MONITORING THE many of the Council’s priorities. These include: CORE STRATEGY • New housing and regeneration at Barton; • Economic growth and supporting employment at the Northern Gateway; • The continuing renaissance of the West End of the City centre; • A new district centre at the heart of Blackbird Leys and upgrading of the Cowley centre. I believe the Core Strategy does this in a way which protects Oxford’s key environmental assets. We are avoiding development on the floodplain and areas of high ecological interest; we are protecting Oxford’s heritage and the views of the historic core; and we are promoting high-quality urban design in both the public and private realm. 3 The adoption of the Core Strategy marks the culmination of a process that has witnessed extensive consultation and dialogue with a wide range of individuals, organisations and interest groups. This has been a lengthy process and we have had some robust debates, reflecting how much people care about this great city. We will now take forward and develop other more detailed plans within the Oxford Local Development Framework. We will continue to actively consult the public on these documents as we progress with planning the future shape of Oxford. We will also seek to implement the Core Strategy by working with a range of partner organisations. We are certain to achieve more through working with all our partners than we could ever hope to on our own. I would like to thank all those who have contributed to the development of this Core Strategy. I believe that their efforts have helped ensure that it provides an excellent framework for achieving a sustainable and prosperous future for Oxford.

The Core Strategy Proposed Submission CORE STRATEGY document became the next and final stage in the consultation Sept-Oct 2008 process. We published a final draft document in September Publication of the Proposed Submission and 2008 to invite representations on the soundness of the spatial Sustainability Appraisal strategy and policies. However following a meeting with the report Examination Inspector, we produced a set of proposed changes to the submitted document. These changes added more detail November 2008 Submission of the Core but they did not make any fundamental changes to the original Strategy and final strategy. All representations relating to the Proposed Submission Sustainability Appraisal report Core Strategy (September 2008), the Proposed Changes to the Submission Core Strategy (April 2009) and the Further Proposed July-Sept 2009 and Sept 2010 5 Changes to the Submission Core Strategy (April 2010) were Independent examination of the Core Strategy taken into account at the Core Strategy examination. March 2011 The Core Strategy and the Adoption of the Core Strategy Local Development Framework iii. The Core Strategy sets out the spatial planning framework for the development of Oxford up to 2026 and is the principal document in Oxford’s Local Development Framework (LDF). The Core Strategy sets out the scale and general location of future development, and policies to deliver the Core Strategy vision and objectives for the next 20 years. Some policies within the Oxford Local Plan 2001-2016 have been superseded by Core Strategy policies (see Appendix 2) but many will be ‘saved’ pending the adoption of future Development Plan Documents (DPDs). A list of saved policies will be published and updated. iv. The Core Strategy contains a clear vision, objectives and a spatial strategy for Oxford. It also includes

    OFFICIAL Rule 10(2)(d) Transport and Works Act 1992 The Transport and Works (Applications and Objections Procedure) (England and Wales) Rules 2006 Network Rail (Oxford Station Phase 2 Improvements (Land Only)) Order 202X Report summarising consultations undertaken 1 Introduction 1.1 Network Rail Infrastructure Limited ('Network Rail') is making an application to the Secretary of State for Transport for an order under the Transport and Works Act 1992. The proposed order is termed the Network Rail (Oxford Station Phase 2 Improvements (Land Only)) Order ('the Order'). 1.2 The purpose of the Order is to facilitate improved capacity and capability on the “Oxford Corridor” (Didcot North Junction to Aynho Junction) to meet the Strategic Business Plan objections for capacity enhancement and journey time improvements. As well as enhancements to rail infrastructure, improvements to highways are being undertaken as part of the works. Together, these form part of Oxford Station Phase 2 Improvements ('the Project'). 1.3 The Project forms part of a package of rail enhancement schemes which deliver significant economic and strategic benefits to the wider Oxford area and the country. The enhanced infrastructure in the Oxford area will provide benefits for both freight and passenger services, as well as enable further schemes in this strategically important rail corridor including the introduction of East West Rail services in 2024. 1.4 The works comprised in the Project can be summarised as follows: • Creation of a new ‘through platform’ with improved passenger facilities. • A new station entrance on the western side of the railway. • Replacement of Botley Road Bridge with improvements to the highway, cycle and footways.
