The list includes: the name of the erecting body (with a hyperlink to a website where possible); a note of whether the scheme is active, dormant, proposed or complete; and a link to an email contact where available. While not all organisations give details of their plaques on their websites, the information included on the register should enable you to contact those responsible for a particular scheme. In a few cases, plaques are described as ‘orphaned’, which indicates that they are no longer actively managed or maintained by the organisation that erected them.

  • Background Papers
    ID CAPACITY TOWN ROAD VIEW COMMENTS As a cycle‐user I frequently use Walton Street both as a destination in its own right and also as a through‐route to and from the rail and coach stations, and West Oxford. The conditions for those who cycle have been immeasurably better since the junction was closed to motor traffic but still open to cycles and those on foot. The simplification of the junction makes a very big difference. Charlbury 9628641 individual Oxford Support That said, the remaining pedestrian crossing at Worcester Street North is now on the wrong alignment to Road facilitate southbound cycle‐users crossing the northbound vehicular flow as it turns into Beaumont Street. This needs urgent solution, now that traffic is rising again post‐COVID. Only when the Traffic Control Point proposed in Connecting Oxford is installed in Worcester Street, operating 24/7 year‐long, should the Walton Street junction be reopened to motor vehicles It is essential to reduce motorised transport both to reduce carbon emissions and to reduce the air pollution caused by motor vehicles. All vehicles cause pollution, including electric vehicles, which require CO2 emissions at power stations and generate particulates from road, brake and tyre wear. Eynsham 9642049 individual Oxford Support The experimental closure of Walton Street is one small step towards creating a safer, healthier and more Road civilised environment for walking and cycling, and reducing vehicle traffic. It should be extended indefinitely, and should be only the first step in a comprehensive suite of measures to eliminate private cars from the city, with the exception of those required by people with physical disabilities that prevent them from using foot, bicycle or public transport.
