Cholsey - proposed parking restrictions amendments

We're asking for your views on the proposal to introduce new & amend existing parking measures in Cholsey, which are being put forward in accordance with OCC parking policy and seek to address problems throughout the village such as unsafe parking at junctions, visibility & turning at junctions, ease of turning manoeuvres for vehicles, unsafe movement of traffic, and the lack of unrestricted parking to cater for the requirements of local residents. Specifically the proposals comprise of the following:

A. Remove existing ‘No waiting for 1-hour’ (single yellow lines) for different periods (i.e. 10-11am and 2-3pm Mondays to Saturdays) to be replaced with new ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ (double yellow lines) restrictions in:

• Papist Way & Station Road.

B. Remove existing ‘No waiting for 1-hour’ (single yellow lines) and provide unrestricted parking in:

• Station Road.

C. Introduce new ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ (double yellow lines) restrictions in:

• Cross Road, Wallingford Road, Rothwells Close, Ilges Lane, Panters Road, Papist Way, Honey Lane, and Station Road.

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 03 November 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/early in 2024. 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).
