Wixams is a new town and civil parish located in Bedfordshire, England, which has been under construction since early 2007.

[citation needed] At the 2011 Census the population of the new town was included in the civil parish of Wilstead.

It is expected to have 4,500 homes, and is likely to provide housing capacity for people who work in Bedford, Milton Keynes and London.

The first residents of Lakeview moved into the area in early 2009, but construction work has proceeded more slowly than forecast due to the late 2000s recession and the consequent state of the UK housing market.

Funded by the Bedfordshire Ecumenical Committee, Tim represents the Anglican, Baptist, Methodist and United Reformed Christian denominations.

The princess visited Lakeview Lower School, and met Dave Hodgson (Mayor of Bedford Borough), Andrew Slack (High Sheriff of Bedfordshire), Tony Gallagher (chairman of Gallagher Estates) as well as pupils and staff from the school.

Wixams is adjacent to the A6 trunk road, part of which was diverted to a new section of dual carriageway in 2007/08 to make space for the development.

[14] (The planned route of the Oxford–Cambridge East West Rail via Bedford reuses the Marston Vale line and so does not run anywhere near the town.

The route runs from Bedford town centre through Wixams and also serves Wilstead, Clophill, Ampthill and Flitwick every hour.

The other, numbered 81 and operated by Stagecoach East, runs from Bedford town centre through Wixams to Wilstead, Clophill, Silsoe, Barton-le-Clay and to Luton every hour.
