Oxford: Osney Mead - proposed parking restriction amendments

Following a previous consultation on proposed pedestrian and cycle improvement measures carried out in January 2021 on Ferry Hinksey Road & Osney Mead, and the subsequent approval given by the Cabinet Member for Environment in February 2021 (details here) - we're now asking for your views on proposals to make minor amendments to facilitate additional works to help ease vehicle manoeuvres in the immediate vicinity. The existing 2-hour Parking Bays (8am – 6.30pm Monday to Friday permit holders exempt) on the north side of Osney Mead north side, will be moved eastwards by approximately 8.6 metres, and shortened slightly to an overall length of 18.5 metres.

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 Thursday 09 June 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).
