    Service Destination Where to Catch Your

    The table below shows proposed new bus stop locations for buses serving the city centre. These changes are part of our proposals to pedestrianise Queen Street to improve the street for pedestrians. The table gives details of the main services affected. If there is a service that is not listed and you would like more details then please contact Ian Williams (E: [email protected], T: 01865815548). Please note, in this proposal the X3 will no longer service the railway station but will instead merge with the X13 to provide a service from Abingdon to the JR Hospital every 10 minutes. The X2 would be extended to Oxford Railway Station, providing a service between the station and Abingdon.

Paul Mayhew-Archer Member of the public 06/01/2013 20:47 " My proposal is to keep Drayton as a single member ward. If this is not possible then my proposal is to call any new two-member ward ""Drayton and Sutton Courtenay"". I, and all villagers in Drayton, currently benefit from knowing we have a District Councillor looking out specifically for our interests. We know it simply because he is actually called THE DISTRICT COUNCILLOR FOR DRAYTON. I also know how confusing it can be when ward descriptions are less clear. I know it because my wife is a District Councillor for a ward in Abingdon and we regularly get calls from residents unsure as to whether she is their councillor. I can see that being a part of a larger two member ward gives us two councillors to call on if we need help, but in practice that is not preferable to having one very local councillor devoted to our interests. i would feel less well represented if a new two centre ward elected two councillors who both live in Sutton Courtney. And I'm sure the villagers of SC would feel equally less well represented if two councillors in a new ward both came from Drayton.

  • Frideswide Square Is One of Oxford's Highest Profile

    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.
