The project promises to create approximately 28,000 jobs, including 20,000 in construction and 8,000 in operational roles within the hospitality and creative industries.
Development and Infrastructure
Set on a 476-acre site at the former Kempston Hardwick brickworks, the park will feature a 500-bed hotel and a retail, dining, and entertainment complex.
The UK government plans to invest in infrastructure around the site to enhance accessibility, supporting the project's integration into the Oxford-Cambridge corridor.
