Oxfordshire County Council is consulting on proposals to deliver the northern section of a new link road, which connects onto the existing A4130 Didcot Northern Perimeter Road / Abingdon Road / Ladygrove priority junction via the introduction of a new (fourth) arm.
Known as the Didcot Northern Perimeter Road 3 (NPR3), the scheme aims to:
- Discourage vehicle traffic from passing through the centre of Didcot and reduce congestion.
- Connect to existing, planned and proposed cycling and walking routes in the area.
- Support planned growth in housing and employment in the region while following the policies set out in Local Transport and Connectivity Plan (LTCP, 2022)
- Minimise the impact on the landscape and provide a betterment to the local environment
The southern section of the Didcot NPR3 scheme, which will connect onto the A4130 Hadden Hill carriageway via a new roundabout, is to be constructed / delivered by Bloor Homes as part of the Ladygrove East housing development.
The northern section of the scheme will directly connect to the southern section. This will then in turn lead to a new roundabout approximately 160m south of this connection point, which will then lead towards the proposed Hadden Hill roundabout a further 450m south.
Once you have reviewed the information about the northern section of the Didcot NPR3 and supporting documents, we would like you to share your views on our proposals, by completing the survey by Tuesday 25 March 2025. Your feedback will help to form designs which we will be submitting for planning approval towards the end of this year.
