  • North West Bicester Supplementary Planning Document
    Appendix 1 North West Bicester Supplementary Planning Document INTERIM DRAFT May 2015 Appendix 1 Foreword North West Bicester will be a neighbourhood unlike any other in Bicester - a development that demonstrates the highest levels of sustainability. Residents who move to North West Bicester will be making a lifestyle choice to live in efficient modern homes built to the highest environmental standards with excellent access to the town centre, public transport and adjoining countryside. The site offers a unique opportunity to bring about a sustainable large scale development as part of the extension of the existing town with a comprehensive mixed use scheme designed and constructed to the highest environmental standards, bringing a mix of homes, offices, shops and easily accessible open space. The development at NW Bicester will make a significant contribution to meeting the District’s need for more homes and jobs as set out in the Local Plan, including the delivery of affordable housing. A series of new places will be created, adding to the quality of and integrating with the existing town. The layout is based on the landscape framework of existing field boundaries defined by hedgerows. The proposals will take at least 20 years to complete and will help trigger the transition to a low carbon community across the town. They present an exciting opportunity to build a new form of sustainable community within Cherwell District and to extend the benefits of this community to the existing town of Bicester.

  • Happy 60 Diamond Jubilee!!! Hermione Nethercot, Aged 10 Bicester Is a Wonderful Place to Be, Surrounded by Friends and Family. I
    Happy 60th Diamond Jubilee!!! Hermione Nethercot, Aged 10 Bicester is a wonderful place to be, Surrounded by friends and family. If the Queen moved to Bicester, wow I would smile, And that smile would last longer than a very long mile! There would be festivals, parades, amazing stuff to do, And all that stuff could be filmed by crew. I know the Queen will never move to Bicester, As London would very dearly miss her. For the Queen’s Jubilee there’ll be cool stuff to do, Parties, parades, and bounces on a bouncy castle, too! People will be laughing, smiling all day long, And I expect at the end, we’ll all sing a song. We’ll all have a wonderful street party, Wanna join in? Come on then, quickly! I think the party will be extremely great, Oh no! Hurry up! We’re going to be late! Bicester is a wonderful place to be, Surrounded by friends and family, If the Queen moved to Bicester, wow I would smile, And that smile would last longer than a very long mile. Bicester Kirsty Gregor, Aged 14 From the Bicester residence, to the Queen. In 60 years, so much you have seen. From three channel television to 3D TV, From pre-decimalised money to pay pal on your PC. Through all this you have reigned successfully Without fault in your steps. Bicester still remembers when you took the crown In that glamorous ball gown From young to old, You stand out bold. In Bicester you’re a hero to us all.
