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.

OXFORD HISTORIC URURBANBAN CHARACTER ASSESSMENT HISTORIC URBAN CHARACTER AREA 3: OSNEY ISLAND - TRANSPORT AND BUSINESS The HUCA is located within broad character Zone A: Osney Island This broad character zone comprises of the bulk of Osney Island, a sub oval Island which formed by two channels of the Thames River (the parish of St Thomas and land to the north, although also part of Osney, has been separated into a different zone). This part of Osney consists of Victorian and 20th century development around the railway and the site of medieval Oseney Abbey. Summary characteristics • Dominant period: 20th century. • Designations: Scheduled Ancient Monument (Railway Swing Bridge County Mon. No. 175). Small part of Central Conservation Area. • Archaeological Interest: The area contains part of the precinct of medieval Oseney Abbey and the projected line of the Royalist Civil War defences (under Oxford Cherwell Valley College).

Notable Railway infrastructure includes the former sites of the goods shed and GWR station and an extant scheduled 19th century swing bridge. • Character: Large industrial, commercial and educational buildings, car parks and the modern railway station. • Spaces: Low density of development. Several open spaces are provided by railway corridor, adjacent scrubland, car parks and derelict spaces. The Oxford Cherwell Valley College campus maintains areas of lawn and tree cover. • Road morphology: Irregular access roads, crossed east-west by the post medieval Botley Road and the modern inner ring road (intended to bypass the town centre in Christ Church meadow but never completed).

George Street/Hythe Bridge Street/Worcester Street Junction – Proposed Amended Junction Layout and Pedestrian & Cycle Provision
Division(s): Jericho and Osney CABINET MEMBER FOR ENVIRONMENT – 12 JULY 2018 OXFORD – GEORGE STREET/HYTHE BRIDGE STREET/WORCESTER STREET JUNCTION – PROPOSED AMENDED JUNCTION LAYOUT AND PEDESTRIAN & CYCLE PROVISION Report by Director for Planning & Place Introduction 1. This report presents responses received during a statutory consultation on the proposal to amend the layout of the George Street/Hythe Bridge Street/Worcester Street junction in central Oxford. In the light of these responses, the Cabinet Member for Environment is recommended to approve changes to the Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) for permitted traffic movements at the junction and changes to pedestrian crossings that were formally advertised in May and June of this year. 2. However, in the light of the response to the consultation, officers recommend that the road layout proposals that accompanied the TRO consultation are not implemented at this stage in order to allow the design team to explore further improvements to the design of the junction which would then be brought to a future Cabinet Member Decision meeting for approval. 3. The delay in implementation would also allow officers to carry out a wider review of the operation of the junction, taking into account the emerging detailed proposals for the Botley Road corridor and the conclusions of the forthcoming transport study of city centre movement by Phil Jones Associates. Both of these could have implications for the design of this junction. Background 4. The George Street/Hythe Bridge Street/Worcester Street junction was changed in 2014 to facilitate various traffic diversions during the construction of the improvements in Frideswide Square and to allow - in the finished scheme - some traffic to avoid Frideswide Square, which traffic modelling at the time indicated was necessary to the overall functioning of the network in the area.
