Oxfordshire is at the heart of robotics and autonomous systems (RAS) activity in the UK. Public sector innovation in CAV has been mirrored with Oxfordshire County Council being the first UK local authority to include CAVs in the local transport strategy, and to have a dedicated CAV team (currently the largest in the UK).

This new facility, named 'Pit Lane' due to its resemblance of a Formula 1 garage, enables a growing range of organisations to come together at one location to develop and test technologies that are necessary if driverless vehicles are to safely enter the market.

Four purpose-built workspaces, each approximately 220m² in size, provide CAV companies with the opportunity to work on two vehicles in the workspace with office accommodation above where technicians can analyse huge quantities of data generated from the cars.

Each unit contains high-end office accommodation on the first floor and a dedicated workspace below with both floors providing direct connection into a highspeed computer network. The workspace is large enough to work on and around the hardware and/or software of two vehicles.

A CAV Track Control Centre is located immediately adjacent to these CAV units, and acts as the hub for a site-wide fibre optic network that will link with dedicated 4G phone masts and wireless units, boosting V2V connectivity (the ability of vehicles to communicate with each other) and further enhance testing capabilities.

Project impacts by 2025:

• Further cement Oxfordshire as a UK CAV leader
• 960m² workspace created
• 48 new jobs

• Total Project Cost: £1.5m
• LGF Awarded: £0.94m
• Delivery Partner: Abingdon & Witney College
• Project Status: Completed - new learner targets due March 2025.

Abingdon & Witney College's Oxfordshire Construction Skills Academy will give young people and adults opportunities to develop the skills needed to secure employment in Oxfordshire.

Oxfordshire's innovation in low-carbon technologies is world-leading, and Abingdon & Witney College's curriculum will reflect this: plumbing for renewable technology, electrical installation, carpentry and joinery.

It's hoped that this shift in curriculum will also reflect Oxfordshire's focus on capturing economic growth opportunities that emerge from the UK's ambition to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

The practical teaching spaces will include specialist technologies to ensure that the students are receiving the relevant skills.  Within the first five years of operation, the Oxfordshire Construction Skills Academy will:

• Deliver 400 apprenticeships
• Serve 240 full-time students
• Serve 300 part-time students.

The Construction Skills Academy will comprise three sites. This project will focus on its new Bicester site, with more development to come on their Abingdon campus in due course; the Witney campus already exists.

This means that communities, employers and the Oxfordshire economy benefit from the project.

Project impacts by 2025:

• Increase number of young people and adults receiving skilled construction qualifications
• 1,405m² of new learning floorspace
• 640 new learners assisted (in courses leading to a full qualification)

Earth Trust, an environmental learning charity, champions accessible natural green spaces for all. This funding will enable the charity to build Earth Lab – a new, environmentally friendly education centre – and develop an existing barn into an Innovation Hub.

The buildings will be located at the Earth Trust at the foot of the historic Wittenham Clumps in Oxfordshire. Work will begin in early 2020 and once completed will enable Earth Trust to further deliver its charitable objectives to involve people of all ages with the environment and climate change through access to natural green spaces.

The Earth Lab will showcase a host of eco-friendly materials and features, incorporating natural building materials that lock up carbon. Designed to sit in harmony with the landscape, the construction comprises a timber frame, straw insulation panels, a rammed earth wall (using soil from the location), a green roof and the minimum concrete possible.

Earth Lab will provide flexible classroom space enabling the Earth Trust to deliver STEM and art based environmental education, improving the skills and confidence of people of all ages. This development will offer significant opportunities to help bring people together, to discover what they can do to care for environmental ecosystems, vital for the future of our planet.

Earth Lab will double the Earth Trust's capacity to engage young people and provide opportunities for bringing environmental science to life throughout the curriculum. The result will be a generation that actively values and cares for their planet.

OxLEP and Oxfordshire Advanced Skills team-up in latest Local Growth Fund project

• Total Project Cost: £2m
• LGF Awarded: £0.5m
• Delivery Partner: Prodrive
• Project Status: Completed – official opening 19th November 2019. On track with new employment targets (due March 2025)

This project will create a new, high-tech, transient dynamometer centre for the testing and development of innovative propulsion systems and engines which use traditional electric, hybrid and fuel power. This will accelerate its development of the new generation of alternative-fuel powertrains and internal combustion engines.

Oxfordshire is globally renowned as a centre of science and innovation and a critical part of the UK’s iconic ‘Motorsport Valley’. Prodrive, which is based in Banbury and is the world’s leading motorsport business, opened its Powertrain Development Centre (PDC) in November 2019. The purpose-built facility represents a multi-million investment and was constructed over a period of six months.

The new PDC means that it can design bespoke engines, make a prototype unit to complete a full validation programme using its own advanced transient dyno and manufacture the powertrain in its own facilities. Its installation reinforces Prodrive's ability to develop the next generation of electric, hybrid and internal combustion engines for road and competition applications, while also strengthening the expertise and services that it offers existing motorsport and technology clients.  The PDC was extensively used in a project with Aston Martin.  Read how this collaboration resulted in wins at Le Mans 2020 here.  

In early 2020 Prodrive was awarded the contract to design and manufacture cars to compete in the Dakar Rally in Saudi Arabia from 2021. The joint venture with Bahrain Mumtalakat Holding Company (Mumtalakat), the sovereign wealth fund of the Kingdom of Bahrain, is called Prodrive International. Prodrive International will manufacture and operate two rally cars specifically to compete in the top level T1 class at the Dakar Rally.  Read the car specifications here.   It will also produce other customer cars and offer a range of performance parts and body kits as accessories for clients.  

The official backing recognised the relationship that Prodrive has established with the local community, being one of the region's largest and most high-profile employers. The launch of the PDC supports 23 jobs in the area.

Project impacts by 2025:

• Increase prototyping of innovative propulsion systems and engines for the next generation of vehicles
• 23 new jobs
• Designing and manufacturing two cars (top level T1 class) for the Kingdom of Bahrain Dakar Ralley team 2021

Prodrive’s Powertrain Development Centre has won the Engine Test Facility of the Year Award from Automotive Testing International magazine. Read about it here.
