They said that no creative content of the park has yet been determined and stressed that “we are still very early in planning this potential project”.

The Universal Destinations & Experiences spokesperson told the Bedford Independent that Bedford’s connectivity to London and Europe was a factor in their decision to begin looking at the feasibility of a park in the area.

They said, “We support Bedford’s vision of becoming a prosperous place to live, work and visit and we take a proactive approach to partnering with local communities and stakeholders, like Bedford Borough Council, when pursuing potential projects.”

Yes fantastic news. I just hope this doesn't get interrupted for years by local residents especially with all the house building going on around there.

Interesting. From the concept art this does appear to have been the location however the rumours are this art is 11 months old and the site Universal have just bought is just down the road by Bedford instead.

The concept art is old so perhaps the location reflected in the concept art is also old?

Did some geo location on the concept art. Wether or not its up to date. The location of that park is actually Caldecote in Milton Keynes Which is right beside the M1 and based on the concept art looks like there could be an elevated transport to Milton Keynes Station which is a main HS line. Looking at the land property map this could very well match the rumored 500 acres.
