This Consultation has now concluded.

We're asking for your views on the proposal to amend sections of ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ (double yellow lines) on Poplar Grove in Kennington, and on the A338 Manor Road in Wantage.

In Wantage it is proposed to extend the existing ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ parking restrictions (double yellow lines) on the western side of the A338 Manor Road, north of the junction with Broadwater Place, and are being put forward as result of adjacent residential development on Broadwater Place, and the restrictions will ensure adequate visibility is maintained for vehicles at the junction.

On Poplar Grove in Kennington, existing double yellow lines are to be removed on both sides from the junction with The Avenue. The measures are being put forward following input from the local County Councillor related to past development (from a garage to a block of flats) at that location. The additional parking which will be created will help alleviate parking pressures in the area and from the nearby school.

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 04 February 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).
