We're asking for your views on the proposal to make amendments to speed limits & parking restrictions in Charlbury, West Oxfordshire as follows:
The existing 30mph speed limit on the B4026 Pound Hill / Charlbury Road will be extended northwards by approx. 530 metres, replacing the existing 40mph speed limit in the process. This proposal seeks to reduce speeds where there are vulnerable pedestrians walking to and from the camp site, brings forward changes suggested over some years by local residents in the town. A new kerbed traffic calming build-out feature will also be constructed on the eastern side of the B4022 Banbury Hill. Priority will be given to traffic travelling northwards out of the town, with those travelling south having to give-way, thereby helping better reduce & manage the speeds of vehicles entering the town.
New and existing ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ (double yellow lines) will be introduced or amended at various locations, including: Grammar School Hill, B4437 Thames Street, B4437 Nine Acres Lane, Church Street, and Browns Lane. Two new 1-hour parking bays (20m & 18m in length) will be introduced on Market Street replacing the existing double yellow lines in the process. These measures are designed to address hazards caused by speeding and dangerous parking, while enabling additional parking in the Town Centre. Extra parking for shoppers (i.e. the 1 hour bays) is required to help encourage the use of local businesses.
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 Friday 24 June 2022.
Whilst we will endeavour 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 2022. 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).
