This consultation has now concluded.

We're asking for your views on the proposal to introduce a 40mph speed limit in place of the National 60mph speed limit on the B4016 Lady Grove from the Appleford Road junction southwards to the existing Didcot 30mph speed limit, and also on Sires Hill either side of the Appleford Road junction. The proposals are being put forward following for road safety reasons specifically in connection with the residential development of adjacent land, and the expected increase in vehicle and pedestrian/cycle movements in the area.

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 12 November 2021.

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 2021/early 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, the Forward Plan of decisions meetings can be viewed here.
