Access to Banbury Station (Tramway Road improvements)

This consultation has now closed.

Welcome to the Access to Banbury Station (Tramway Road improvements) public consultation. This consultation will run from 12.00 on Tuesday 16 November to 23.59 on Tuesday 14 December 2021.

The scheme aims to improve the road layout and facilities around Banbury Station – and ultimately access to the station - improve journey times for buses, taxis, pedestrians and cyclists, and provide better connectivity between southern Banbury and Banbury town centre.

We are proposing to improve access to the western station car park from the south of the town and improve safety for pedestrians and cyclists by providing a new footway and cycleway from Tramway Road to the station.

These updated proposals consider feedback from a public consultation held in early 2020 to gather initial feedback on the scheme. They have been designed to meet and support the objectives of the Cherwell Local Plan (Part 1) Policy Banbury 1, Banbury Vision and Masterplan SPD, Local Transport Plan 4 Policy and Overall Strategy and Vision, and the emerging Oxfordshire Plan 2050.

New way of presenting designs

We understand engineering drawings can be hard to read, so you can now use our online visualisation platform, Remix.

• You can access our proposals on an online-based map and by scrolling you can use it in the same way as you would use Google Maps.
• You can zoom in and out to see the details and leave specific feedback by clicking on “Leave a Comment” situated on the top right-hand side of the map.
• More detailed, technical drawings are also available on the sidebar to the right of this page.

Please note: overall scheme feedback should be left using the consultation questions provided on this page. Comments on the Remix plans should only be related to specific features or design element that are of concern or if supported. This will determine the hierarchy of most important features and those that need improvements. Alternative suggestions are welcomed.
