We're asking for your views on the proposal to amend the eligibility of various properties within Oxford Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs) to apply for Residents & Visitors Parking Permits. The proposals are in accordance with parking policy, and are a result of the relevant planning permissions granted by Oxford City Council with associated conditions, and internal review of current eligibility when requested. The proposals are outlined in the table below:

CPZProposal
Magdalen North
exclude No.55 Randolph Street from eligibility to apply for resident's parking permits & residents' visitors parking permits.
Cowley East
exclude No.13 Cleveland Drive from eligibility to apply for resident's parking permits & residents' visitors parking permits.
Walton Manor
exclude No.179 Kingston Road from eligibility to apply for resident's parking permits & residents' visitors parking permits.
Central Area (B)
exclude Flat Nos.1-7 at No.46 Hythe Bridge Street from eligibility to apply for residents' parking permits & resident visitors parking permits.
Cowley West
exclude No.5 Bartholomew Road & No.16 Crowell Road from eligibility to apply for residents' parking permits & resident visitors parking permits.


As a result of approved residential development at No.19 Wharton Road, the following amendments to parking provision are proposed:

CPZProposal
Headington Northeast
a) the ‘Two-hour shared-use 8am-6.30pm Monday to Friday’ parking bay north of the common boundary of Nos.21a & 21b, will be removed in its entirety, and replaced with new ‘No Waiting at Any Time’ (double yellow lines) parking restrictions, which will help ensure safe entry/egress to/from the new properties.

b) include the three new properties at No.5 St Leonards Road/No.19 Wharton Road for eligibility to apply for residents' parking permits & resident visitors parking permits.


Finally, the following administrative amendments will be made as a result of inconsistencies being identified within the relevant Traffic Regulation Orders:

CPZProposal
Marston North
confirm that even Nos.26-38 Park Way are eligible to apply for both resident's parking permits and residents' visitors' parking permits, having originally been omitted in error.
Magdalen Road South
insert the existing ‘Permit Holders Only’ parking place on Hertford Street, adjacent to Nos.40-56 into the relevant schedule, which had been omitted from the original order in error. No changes will be made on-the-ground, with all restrictions remaining as currently in place.
Jericho
exclude Nos.56A, 76A, 82A, 83A, 86, 87, & 88 Castle Mill House, Juxon Street, from eligibility to apply for residents' parking permits & resident visitors parking permits.


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 17 October 2025.

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 2025. 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).
