Woodstock: Shipton Road - proposed 30mph speed limit

We're asking for your views on the proposal to introduce a 30mph speed limit in place of the existing national speed limit on Shipton Road, Woodstock. The proposals are being put forward for road safety reasons in connection with the residential development of adjacent land, and will extend south and eastwards of the existing 20mph speed limit, replacing a section of the existing 60mph speed limit in the vicinity of the new junction at Cowells Road.

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 19 November 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/early 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, the Forward Plan of decisions meetings can be viewed here.
