  • APPENDIX I Report of the Ward Boundary Review Working Group To
    APPENDIX I Report of the Ward Boundary Review Working Group to CEB – 20th March 2018 Criteria Used This submission uses the following principles as criteria for the proposed scheme, in addition to the legally required criteria for equality of electorates: the river Cherwell and the river Thames south of the confluence with the Cherwell should be used as boundaries between wards that wards should be based on clearly identifiable communities or collections of communities as far as possible to use arterial roads as the centre of wards rather than boundaries between them where possible – in several parts of the city it is not - current wards should be the starting point for the new scheme Number of Councillors In line with the submission from the Council that has been accepted by the Commission, the scheme is for 48 councillors. Number of Wards Oxford currently has a scheme of 24 two member wards, which has been in place since 2002. This approach replaced the previous system of 17 larger wards, and was supported by the Council and the Commission because a larger number of smaller wards had the following advantages: smaller wards offer better community identity with the political boundaries in multi-member wards all electors rightly expect that each councillor is equally representative of them, and a two-member ward scheme means that each councillor represents 33% fewer electors than a three-member ward scheme, enabling them to be more responsive to the needs of their electors wards make it easier for electors to identify with their councillors the communities that make up Oxford better suit 24 two-member wards than they do any other scheme The experience of the current two member ward system has amply demonstrated these advantages; therefore a 24 ward scheme should be retained.

  • Samuel Lipscomb Seckham
    Samuel Lipscomb Seckham By PETER HOWELL l TIL recently the name of Samuel Lipscomb Seckham was fairly widely U known in Oxford as that of the architect of Park Town. A few other facts, such as that he was City Surveyor, were known to the cognoscenti. No-one, however, had been able to discover anything significant about his background, let alone what happened to him after he built the Oxford Corn Exchange in 1861-2. In '970 a fortunate chance led to the establishment of contact with Dr. Ann Silver, a great-granddaughter of Seckham, and as a result it has been po ible to piece together the outline ofhis varied career.' He was born on 25 October ,827,' He took his names from his grandparents, Samuel Seckham (1761-1820) and Susan Lipscomb (d. 18'5 aged 48).3 His father, William ('797-,859), kept livery stables at 20 Magdalen Street, Oxford,. and prospered sufficiently to retire and farm at Kidlington.5 The family came from Devon, where it is aid that Seccombes have occupied Seccombe Farm at Germans­ week, near Okehampton, since Saxon limes. Seccombes are still living there, farming. It is thought that Seckllam is the earlier spelling, but tombstones at Germansweek show several different versions. 6 It is not known how the family reached Oxford, but Samuel Lipscomb Seckham's great-grandmother Elizabeth was buried at St. Mary Magdalen in 1805.7 His mother was Harriett Wickens (1800-1859). Her grandfather and father were both called James, which makes it difficult to sort out which is which among the various James W;ckens' recorded in I The fortunate chance occurred when Mrs.

At a time when Oxford needed to expand out of its historic core centred around the castle, the medieval streets and the major colleges, these two factors enabled the area to be laid out as a planned suburb as lands associated with medieval manors were made available. This gives the whole area homogeneity as a residential suburb.

  • Jericho and Walton Manor Traffic Pilot Scheme Frequently Asked Questions
    Oxfordshire County Council Jericho and Walton Manor Traffic Pilot Scheme Frequently Asked Questions 1. Why propose the traffic scheme? Traffic jams, lorries and speeding vehicles in our local streets is bad for our health and environment. Enabling more people to feel safe and confident cycling and walking helps to address these issues. Over the past year, public health challenges and alterations to how we live day-to-day (e.g social distancing) have accelerated and given additional importance to supporting more people to walk and cycle as part of their daily lives. Making the streets feel safer and more welcoming to walk and cycle in is part of a programme of measures proposed by both Oxfordshire County Council (local highway authority) and Oxford City Council. The programme includes Connecting Oxford, expansion of Controlled Parking Zones, and infrastructure projects on roads (e.g Botley Road). 2. Who is behind the proposal? Oxfordshire County Council are the local highway authority so we lead this work. We are working with Oxford City Council to deliver a programme of measures to support people in shifting journeys to public transport, walking and cycling where possible. This programme includes Connecting Oxford, expansion of Controlled Parking Zones, the Oxford Zero Emission Zone and making changes to streets to make them safer (e.g Botley Road). 3. What happens to the existing traffic filter on Walton Street at the Worcester Street junction? Walton Street has been closed to all motor vehicle traffic at its junction with Worcester Street since July 2019. Initially the road was closed to motorised vehicles to allow maintenance work on Walton Street following the discovery of sink holes underneath the road.

  • ANNEX 4A – Email Responses
    1 ANNEX 4a – Email Responses RESPONDENT VIEW COMMENTS Key Stakeholders/Groups I accept this junction has been closed for a number of weeks due to road maintenance, however any longer- term proposal to restrict vehicular traffic is NOT supported. 1. Emergency response times for ALL Emergency services to this area will increase and detrimental to public Thames Valley Police Object safety. 2. Walton Street is currently a defined Diversion route for Blue light services and other vehicles during closures of St Giles. Alternative Diversions much longer and detrimental in terms of Emergency response to North Oxford. Can see this would be beneficial to the residents of Walton street, I do have some concerns regarding Emergency access. Since the current closure has been in place, we have attended quite a few minor incidents, and the only Fire & Rescue Service, access has been via St Giles and little clarendon street or St Margret’s road for the Hydraulic Platform (due (Rewley Road & Slade Concerns to the size and amount of swing on the vehicle) Park White Watch) Whilst I am not opposed to a temporary traffic closure trial myself, I would personally like the ability to access via a transponder and a bollard or some other mechanism that we could breach? Obviously, a sign would do the same, but would state only emergency vehicles have access. During the current road closures on Walton Street, our appliances have been significantly delayed in attending properties down Walton Street and the surrounding side roads/Port Meadow because of high traffic levels, tight roads for the diversion and the length of time it takes us to get to suitable diversion routes that are listed in the consultation map.

  • Traffic Sensitive Streets – Briefing Sheet
    Traffic Sensitive Streets – Briefing Sheet Introduction Oxfordshire County Council has a legal duty to coordinate road works across the county, including those undertaken by utility companies. As part of this duty we can designate certain streets as ‘traffic-sensitive’, which means on these roads we can better regulate the flow of traffic by managing when works happen. For example, no road works in the centre of Henley-on-Thames during the Regatta. Sensitive streets designation is not aimed at prohibiting or limiting options for necessary road works to be undertaken. Instead it is designed to open-up necessary discussions with relevant parties to decide when would be the best time to carry out works. Criteria For a street to be considered as traffic sensitive it must meet at least one of the following criteria as set out in the table below: Traffic sensitive street criteria A The street is one on which at any time, the county council estimates traffic flow to be greater than 500 vehicles per hour per lane of carriageway, excluding bus or cycle lanes B The street is a single carriageway two-way road, the carriageway of which is less than 6.5 metres wide, having a total traffic flow of not less than 600 vehicles per hour C The street falls within a congestion charges area D Traffic flow contains more than 25% heavy commercial vehicles E The street carries in both directions more than eight buses per hour F The street is designated for pre-salting by the county council as part of its programme of winter maintenance G The street is within 100 metres of a critical signalised junction, gyratory or roundabout system H The street, or that part of a street, has a pedestrian flow rate at any time of at least 1300 persons per hour per metre width of footway I The street is on a tourist route or within an area where international, national, or significant major local events take place.
