Wantage: A338 Grove Road - proposed shared-use cycle path

We're asking for your views on the proposal to introduce sections of Shared-Use foot & cycleway on the east side of the A338 Grove Road in Wantage, from its junction with the King Alfred Way/Mably Way roundabout, northwards to its junction with Grove Road/the access to the Elms Farm business park.

The proposal is being put forward in order to help improve pedestrian and pedal cyclist safety in the vicinity of the planned new retail development adjacent to the A338 Grove Road.

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 20 June 2025.

Whilst we will endeavor 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).
