  • 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.
