A company which has put together new plans and enhancements for its £700m “innovation district” wants people’s views on them.
Oxford North is being built by Oxford North Ventures, owned by Thomas White Oxford (TWO), the development company of St John’s College, and two other companies.
TWO says Oxford North will form the city’s “new life sciences district”.
Initial works are already under way on land near the A34, A40 and the A44.
Planning permission for Oxford North’s masterplan and a first stage of work, including two workspace buildings and a central public park, was granted by Oxford City Council in March 2021.
