Speaking about the project, Oxford chief executive Tim Williams said: “With our right to use the Kassam Stadium coming to an end in 2026 and no option to renew the lease, we must find a new home.
“The club is committed to developing a proposal which is highly sustainable and community focused whilst providing a state-of-the-art destination for all.
“The further detail we have released today shows how seriously we take these principles, and I am delighted to share the first glimpse of our stadium with the whole of Oxfordshire.
“I hope everyone from Kidlington, the surrounding areas and across the county will come to the exhibition and take a look at the plans.
“We want to hear all your feedback.”
Oxford chiefs will be meeting fans to discuss the project and answer questions in the coming weeks.
