Puy du Fou

Puy du Fou are proposing to build a 300+ acre theme park on farmland just north of Bicester, close to M40 J10. The park, which is to be sited within a few hundred metres of the villages of Bucknell, Bainton and Stoke Lyne, borders a Woodland Trust wood and the M40. It would be served by the busy and accident-prone B4100.

The plans affect all who live and travel in this area and beyond: both Baynard’s Green and J10 are at and over capacity and not just at peak times. These proposals do not take into account Puy du Fou proposals, to be situated about a mile south of the warehousing, off the B4100, or proposals to build 6,000 new houses at Heyford Park and 7,750 between Bicester and Bucknell.

Local Plan 2042

The Local Plan will guide our decisions on planning applications and contribute to the achievement of sustainable development. It is a Plan to meet our development needs, to respond to climate change, to protect the environment and to support our local economy and communities.

The Plan sets out a vision and proposes homes, employment land, infrastructure and other essential services required to support the local community over the plan period.

To ensure the council does what they say above, we need to ensure we respond to the Draft Plan 2042 by the deadline, 25th February 2025.
