\nVale of White Horse District Council (VWHDC) and South Oxfordshire District Council have teamed up to create a Joint Local Plan to guide future development in both districts until 2041. <\/p>\n

There aren’t any major changes to the development plans for Abingdon compared to the 2031 plan. However, changes are happening nearby at Dalton Barracks. The Ministry of Defence is moving out by 2029, and the plan is to develop the vacant barracks area.
\n
\nInstead of the 1,200 homes originally planned until 2031, the new proposal is for 2,750 until 2041. The development area will include extra land from the Green Belt, creating a larger area (52 hectares compared to 30 hectares). This is intended to be a Garden Village-style development with a school, local shops, good transport links, and plenty of green space. There is nothing planned for the top of the airfield.<\/p>\n

The proposal can be viewed online at https:\/\/jlp.southandvale.gov.uk\/<\/a>. (Chapter 8 and AS10 has Dalton Barracks.) A printed copy is also available at Abingdon Library.<\/p>\n

There is a drop in event in Shippon at Shippon Church Hall on 24th January between 3pm and 8pm. VWHDC will be there to answer questions and explain the plans in more detail.<\/p>\n

The drop in event in Abingdon will be at Pablos on 3rd February. <\/p>\n

The joint plan is far more than just building development. In Chapter 9 on town centres, the preferred option is for Didcot to be the principal town centre across both districts, with Abingdon-on-Thames, Faringdon, Henley-on-Thames, Thame, Wallingford, and Wantage within a second town centre tier.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
