A public consultation on the vision for a ‘Spatial Framework’ will be open for 12 weeks. The Government is also establishing a new expert panel, which will work with local authorities and communities, to advise on creating sustainable economic and housing growth in the Arc. The Oxford-Cambridge (OxCam) Arc is the name given to the area identified by Government as a key economic priority. It aims to boost the economic output of Oxfordshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, and Northamptonshire to £200bn a year by 2050 in a strategy akin to the Northern Powerhouse.
