Bicester is a town in northeastern Oxfordshire.

A historic market town, Bicester has grown as a commercial centre thanks to its good, modern transport links and it is now one of the fastest growing towns in Oxfordshire.[1] Development has been favoured by its proximity to junction 9 of the M40 motorway linking it to London, Birmingham and Banbury.
