Ascott under Wychwood: London Lane - proposed 40mph speed limit

We're asking for your views on the proposal to replace a section of the current 60mph National speed limit with a 300 metre length of 40mph speed limit ‘buffer’ on London Lane, leading north-westwards into Ascott-under-Wychwood, meeting with the proposed 20mph speed limit (see here for details). The proposals are being put forward in support of - and in addition to - the proposed 20mph speed limit, and seek to help better manage the speed of traffic entering the village.

Have your say.

Please read the detailed information provided on this consultation and take the time to complete the survey as your views and opinions matter. Your response should be completed and returned by 5pm on Friday 11 August 2023.

Whilst we will endeavor to answer simple queries during the course of the consultation, any more complex questions/issues will be appraised and dealt with as part of consultation process.

What happens next?

The County Council will review the responses and if necessary (i.e. if objections are received) prepare a report to be presented to the Cabinet Member for Highway Management at a meeting scheduled for later in 2023. This will be public meeting at which members of the public may apply to speak. The agenda and reports for meetings will be made available on the Oxfordshire County Council web site about a week before the meeting (please note that occasionally it is necessary to defer reports to a later meeting, and it is therefore advisable to check the agenda ahead of attending a meeting).
