Mace has secured a £184m ($237.22m) contract to deliver the next phase of expansion for The Oxford Science Park, which is majority-owned by Magdalen College, Oxford, UK.
Called The Daubeny Project, this development will introduce three new laboratory and office buildings, enhancing the park’s capacity by 400,500ft².
The Oxford Science Park expansion is designed with sustainability at the forefront.
The new buildings will incorporate biodiverse landscaping, photovoltaic energy generation, and optimised orientation to maximise natural lighting and energy efficiency.
Mace’s collaboration with the client and the design team aims to incorporate sustainability into the construction process.
Innovative ground engineering solutions are expected to reduce the project’s carbon footprint by approximately 3,000 tonnes (t) of embodied carbon.

The completion of the Oxford Science Park expansion is scheduled for the end of 2026.
Mace Construct Public Sector and Life Sciences managing director Robert Lemming said: “The Oxford Science Park is home to some of the most forward-thinking and innovative companies, and these new cutting-edge facilities will help unlock groundbreaking research that people will rely on for decades to come.
“As our population grows and ages, more sites like these will be needed to meet the pressing demand for high-quality laboratory space, and at The Oxford Science Park we are setting new standards for efficiency and sustainability.”
In May this year, Mace completed Gordon Murray Automotive’s new global headquarters at Higham’s Park in Windlesham, Surrey.
