City unveils plan for new estate (From Oxford Mail)

City unveils plan for new estate (From Oxford Mail)

THE FINE details of the biggest housing project in Oxford since the Greater Leys estate was built have been released.

Now it is time for residents to have their say after Oxford City Council released the first batch of information on how the Barton West development could look.

It is the largest undeveloped site for residential use within the city and is seen as the key to helping solve the city’s housing shortage.

Preferred plans for the site, of up to 1,200 homes, include building homes facing on to the ring road and Barton Village R oad, which would have reduced speed limits, and a new park alongside Bayswater Brook.
