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.

  • 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.

INTRODUCTION This Design Statement is offered in support of the planning application for the alterations to 19 Warnborough road, Oxford. Our clients would like to seek consent to extend this house. Their aim is to create a house that offers the flexibility to support family living in the property over the long-term. They would like to create a small amount of additional living space at lower ground floor level. A key intention of the proposed extension is to improve upon the relationship between the house and garden and to improve the quality of accommodation. It is also proposed to provide a new covered side access porch. Throughout the design process, a focus has been placed on the important conservation considerations of the site. Particular consideration has been given to the application site location within the North Oxford Victorian Suburb Site Location Plan (Not to scale) Conservation Area and its associated area appraisal. The application has been subject to a fruitful and useful pre-planning process. 2.0. THE SITE AND LOCATION 2.1.
