Oxford: Grenoble Road - proposed parking restrictions

We're asking for your views on the proposals to replace the existing ‘unrestricted’ parking bay on the east side of Grenoble Road at Greater Leys (adjacent to the water treatment works) with approx.110 metres of new ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ parking prohibition, creating a continuous length of no waiting between the two roundabout junctions.

The proposals are being put forward as a result of the development of adjacent land (between the water treatment works & the carriageway) for commercial purposes in relation to the ‘Oxford Science Park’, with two new access junctions onto the southbound carriageway being planned.

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 08 May 2026.

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 2026. 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).
