Preparatory works are already underway on the project with MICA Architects leading the design.

This scheme will also see the refurbishment of retail space in Market Street and Cornmarket.

Anthony Nagle, Construction Director for BAM Construction South East, said: "We have a stand-out track record in Oxford. The quality of buildings in this city are as good as anywhere in the UK and attract the best designs. The confined and historic conditions are also the most difficult to build in, so it takes a genuinely collaborative approach and real expertise to make big ambitions become a reality. That's where I believe our experience and attitude count."

Main contractual works at Northgate will commence soon ahead of a scheduled completion date in 2021.
