Click on the ‘Comment on this application’ and describe all the benefits you see Puy du Fou bringing. This could include:

  • The fact that it is bringing 2000 direct jobs and 6000 indirect jobs to the area

  • The creation of a worl class, award winning destination with a unique offering not found elsewhere in the UK

  • The woodland setting, with the planting of 20,000 trees, 5 miles of hedgerow and 40 acres of wildflower meadow

  • The arrival of a theatrical based park which would appeal to families and groups of all ages

  • Their provision of training and partnership with Bicester and Banbury college, enabling a clear career pathway for interested locals

  • Whilst this is a large development, only 15% of the land will have buildings on it - no other opportunity would present such a biodiverse situation

  • Their stance on being fossil fuel free and commitment to renewable energy

  • The self sufficiency of their local water and drainage systems which will be self sufficient

  • The creation and monitoring of new road interventions, with the remedial work paid for by a % of car parking receipts

  • Their partnership with Chiltern Railways to ensure any new timetables are related to the arrival and departure times of visitors

  • Their staggered opening hours which will avoid travel peaks

  • Their commitment to using local suppliers

  • The benefits to the local area - for every GBP1 spent in the park, another GBP 3.20 will be spent by visitors in the local economy
