The new park, which would have a construction period of around six years, would be built on land once occupied by Kempston Hardwick brickworks, once the world's largest brickworks in terms of output, which closed in 2008 and which was demolished in September 2021.
新公园的建设期约为6年,将建在曾经被Kempston Hardwick砖厂占用的土地上,该砖厂曾是世界上产量最大的砖厂,于2008年关闭,并于2021年9月拆除。

Universal said evidence from its other theme parks suggested that for every job supported within the parks at least 1.5 further jobs could be supported in the supply chain and neighbouring parts of the economy - leading to its expectation of a net additional 20,000 jobs.
环球表示,来自其他主题公园的证据表明,在公园内支持的每一个工作岗位,至少可以在供应链和邻近经济领域支持1.5个额外的工作岗位,从而导致其预计净增加20000个工作岗位。

Of Europe's 20 most visited theme parks, four - Legoland Windsor, Alton Towers, Chessington World of Adventures and Thorpe Park - are in the UK, all owned by the former FTSE-100 giant Merlin Entertainments. Their combined visitor numbers annually come to around half of what Universal is targeting.

The weather issue

天气问题
A third factor, potentially, is the weather. This is something that already handicaps a lot of theme parks in northern Europe, such as Liseberg in the Swedish city of Gothenburg, the Tivoli Gardens in the Danish capital Copenhagen and the original Legoland, in the Danish city of Billund, which close for some or all of the winter. So does Phantasialand, one of Germany's biggest and most popular attractions.
第三个因素可能是天气。这已经阻碍了北欧许多主题公园的发展,比如瑞典哥德堡的利瑟贝里公园、丹麦首都哥本哈根的蒂沃利花园,以及丹麦比隆市的乐高乐园,它们在冬季部分或全部关闭。幻影岛也是如此,它是德国最大、最受欢迎的景点之一。

最初的欧洲迪士尼多年来一直亏损,部分原因是管理不善,部分原因是对欧洲尤其是法国消费者所追求的东西的误解,直到2017年被华特迪士尼公司完全收购后,它才真正得到了有效的运营。

Transport challenges
交通的挑战
交通的挑战
Another big risk is the transport lixs. Universal Destinations & Experiences - the name was changed last year from Universal Parks & Resorts to better reflect the kind of services customers will be offered in future in both the physical and virtual worlds - has sexted the site primarily for its rail and road lixs to London and, with one in three visitors expected to come from overseas, for its proximity to Luton Airport.
另一个巨大的风险是交通联系。“环球旅游目的地和体验”——去年更名为“环球公园和度假村”,以更好地反映客户未来将在现实和虚拟世界中提供的服务——选择这个地点主要是因为它有通往伦敦的铁路和公路,而且预计三分之一的游客来自海外,因为它靠近卢顿机场。

Yet those lixs are not currently up to handling the kind of visitor numbers Universal Destinations & Experiences is expecting.
然而,这些线路连接目前还无法满足环球旅游目的地和体验中心预期的游客数量。
然而,这些线路连接目前还无法满足环球旅游目的地和体验中心预期的游客数量。
The M1, the main road lix to London, is frequently congested around the Luton turn-off at junction 10 and the road lixs from there to the site in need of improvement.
连接伦敦的主要道路M1经常在卢顿10号路口附近拥堵,从那里通往需要改善的地点的道路连接。

因此,环球旅游目的地和体验将寻求政府的激励措施,以投资当地的公路和铁路连接。

Support could also come from East West Rail, the proposed new main line railway connecting East Anglia and South Wales, the first phase of which is a line between Oxford and Cambridge and for which a new station at Kempston Hardwick - whose existing station backs onto the land the park would operate - has been proposed.
东西铁路也可能提供支持,这条拟议中的连接东安格利亚和南威尔士的新干线铁路,其第一阶段是牛津和剑桥之间的一条线路,并提议在肯普斯顿哈德威克新建一个车站(现有车站背靠公园将运营的土地)。

计划过程
Riskiest of all, perhaps, is the planning process. Local businesses and MPs are supportive while both Jeremy Hunt, the Chancellor and Mark Harper, the Transport Secretary, have been briefed on the project. Planning proposals have been submitted and Universal Destinations & Experiences has held talks with Bedford Borough and Central Bedfordshire Councils.
最危险的或许是规划过程。英国财政大臣杰里米·亨特和交通大臣马克·哈珀都听取了有关该项目的简报,当地企业和议员对此表示支持。规划提案已经提交,环球目的地和体验已经与贝德福德自治市和中央贝德福德郡议会举行了会谈。

However, Mr Thompson confirmed that Universal Destinations & Experiences is seeking planning permission via a so-called special development order - which would take the decision out of the hands of the local authorities and instead leave the final decision on planning consent with the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities.
然而,汤普森先生证实,“环球旅游目的地及体验”正在通过一项所谓的特殊开发令寻求规划许可——这将使地方当局不再有决定权,而将规划许可的最终决定权留给了住房和社区部。

It would be great to have a true theme park in this country. As much as I love Alton Towers and Thorpe Park, they can't compete with the quality of other European and American parks.
Even if it manages to go ahead I can't see it happening without height and noise restrictions being imposed which would really limit the park's potential.

There are several multi-billion pound projects proposed and privately funded in the UK that would provide thousands of jobs and true investment in terms of also paving the way for supporting infrastructure, like roads, housing, schools etc.

Only problems I see is that the road and rail infrastructure can't currently handle 20 million tourists.
And I seriously doubt that Bedford has enough hotels for them all.
So those things are going to have to be addressed at the same time or there's no way this is going to work.

If you own a house in the area you should be absolutely ecstatic, I'm sure being near the biggest tourist attraction in the UK would make the house values rise rapidly
如果你在这个地区拥有自己的房子,你应该欣喜若狂,我敢肯定,靠近英国最大的旅游景点会让房价迅速上涨

I live not a million miles away, and a few colleagues live in the surrounding villages.
Thankfully, the general consensus is that locals are excited for it. Of course there are some moaners, but I think people have taken pretty positively to it.
我住在离这儿不算很远的地方,有几个同事住在附近的村庄里。
值得庆幸的是,普遍的共识是当地人对此感到兴奋。当然,也有一些人在抱怨,但我认为人们(总体上)对此持积极态度。

Problem with our ones is space, like they’re big, you need to just straight up terraform like 10 square km, which is no easy feat and good luck finding anywhere to do that near any decently populated areas
我们的问题是空间,就像它们很大,你需要直接改造10平方公里,这不是一件容易的事,祝你好运能在任何人口稠密的地区附近找到某些地方
