This Consultation has now concluded.

We're asking for your views on the proposal to introduce a 20mph speed limit throughout Stonesfield village, replacing the existing 30mph speed limit in its entirety. The proposals are being put forward following road safety concerns raised by local residents & the Parish Council. Extensive local engagement has been carried out along with traffic speed surveys at key points on the network in the area.

Additionally, traffic calming will be introduced by giving priority to vehicles travelling northwards through the village on Laughton Hill/The Ridings at the junction with Boot Street, with new signage showing vehicles travelling south to Give Way to oncoming vehicles.

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 08 October 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. This will be public meeting at which members of the public may apply to speak. The agenda and reports 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).
