  • 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.

  • Frideswide Square Is One of Oxford's Highest Profile
    Frideswide Square Frequently Asked Questions Why are you doing this work? Frideswide Square is one of Oxford’s highest profile public areas and is a vital link between major road routes into the city. Tens of thousands of car, bus, cycle and pedestrians pass through each day and the area is also the destination for thousands of rail passengers. The county council is tackling what has been seen as a perennial problem for travellers coming into the city – our work will see improved journey times, far better facilities for pedestrians and cyclists and be part of a modern gateway for Oxford. We are investing in a better system for traffic and creating some excellent public space that is in keeping with nearby facilities such as the business school and future developments such as the revamped train station. The finished Fridewide Square will reflect the regeneration taking place in and around Oxford and the county as a whole. How much are you spending on this? £5.5million. This is a major investment into Oxford and just one of the pieces of work being done to ensure the city has the transport infrastructure to match its ambition to be a world class city. What does the work involve? There are two stages to the implementation of the project. The first stage of works, recently completed, involved reallocating parking from Becket Street to Osney Lane and St Thomas Street. There were also minor adjustments to the road layout at the junctions of Becket Street/Botley Road, Becket Street Osney Lane and Osney Lane/Hollybush Row.

    Rewley Road Swing Bridge Restoration Project The Rewley Road swing bridge was completed in 1851 for the Buckinghamshire Railway, backed by the London and North Western Railway (LNWR) to serve an Oxford terminus and sidings, now the Said Business School and Rewley Park. The bridge is protected as a scheduled ancient monument because it is an outstanding example of Victorian railway engineering, but it also has many stories to tell about nineteenth century transport history. The last train ran over the bridge in 1984. From then, it was always hoped it could be restored LMS locomotive 8106 reversing into over the swing bridge into the ‘Shipley’ sidings in 1942.
