Center Parcs is delighted to announce that the construction of its 5th UK village, Woburn Forest in Bedfordshire, will commence in the next few weeks. The construction phase will last for approximately two years, with a scheduled opening date now set for Spring 2014.

This announcement follows the completion of all the requirements of planning consent, including the construction of a new roundabout at Millbrook, the diversion of Public Rights of Way and creation of new bridleways and cycle paths around the site. On the 28th February 2012, together with owners Blackstone, Center Parcs secured the £250m funding to commence the construction phase. The principal contractors for the project will be formally announced shortly and are expected to start the major infrastructure phase of the project in the next few weeks.

I can't work out why this is being called the Woburn centre parks as its on the wrong side of the M1 for it to be at woburn, I guess it sounds better than Flitwick Centre Parcs though

This has been on the cards for ages now.....I just hope that the main contractors are looking for some local labour for the project. My last firm (Milton Keynes based) are bidding for the lodges as offsite construction but will no doubt loose out to a firm 200 miles away.
