Capital projects

Working alongside private and public sector partners, we have secured significant, major investment for dozens of schemes that are playing a crucial role in improving infrastructure, increasing job creation and benefitting the businesses and communities of the county.

Since 2014, we have secured over £107.5million of investment to transform Oxfordshire businesses and communities through the government’s Local Growth Fund.

By 2030, all Local Growth Fund projects are collectively anticipated to lead to the creation of 9,500 jobs, support the development of 1,800 new homes and enable at least another £850million-worth of additional funding.

In August 2020 we secured £8.4 million from the government’s Getting Building Fund to give Oxfordshire businesses and communities a boost following the Covid-19 outbreak.

This is set to ensure the creation of 640 new jobs in the county by 2025, the preservation of a further 290, assistance for 350 businesses, and opportunities for approximately 500 new learners.

‘Lighting the Spark’ with Enterprise Oxfordshire

Our industry-leading and impactful capital projects – whether delivered through our Getting Building Fund, Local Growth Fund, or previous City Deal or Growing Places Fund allocations – have collectively delivered improvements across key areas including business space, research and development, digital infrastructure, education and transport solutions.

Through our thoughtful, collaborative and strategic approach, we continue to play a critical role supporting stakeholders across Oxfordshire to shape our future.
