Full council record
Purpose

The Movement and Place (MAP) plans form part
2s of the Local Transport Connectivity Plan. The Science Vale MAP
Plan was the first plan to be discussed at cabinet in January
2026.

A greater emphasis has been had on "place" hence forth the plans
now reflect this in their title. They will reflect Oxfordshire's
changing priority to be a place shaper of choice and articulate the
council's wide aspirations.

Objectives and Actions have been developed for our places with a
focus on achieving liveable, healthy neighbourhoods and to help
demonstrate and achieve integration across different modes and
allow the achievement of the LTCP targets. The plans will replace
the extant Local Transport Plan 4 strategies, adopted in
2016.

This MAP Plan reflects the Bicester area in the North of the County
(Cherwell) with further plans to come forward over the following
months.
