Yes to 'destination Jericho' traffic - visitors, deliveries customers. No to traffic filters, congestion charge pedestrianisation. Keep Jericho alive.

Powerful piece in the Standard: "London transport chiefs accused of 'cover-up' on record high cycling casualties." Even the London Cycling Campaign admits the rate is increasing: “The current level of risk is on the rise and there are more serious injuries than there was growth in cycling." standard.co.uk/news/london/c…

More sports facilities being lost for us in Jericho - the City Council should step in to stop this development but we know they won't.

Council breaking the rules by not sticking to the Quiet Lanes government guidance. They're calling it 'enhancement', others will call it 'trying to pull the wool over our eyes' (again). facebook.com/OxonLive/posts/…

Oxfordshire County Council are claiming their policies have caused significant - and unique - crash reductions. The figures show it’s not quite as simple as they say. mmcmusings.com/2026/05/29/ox…

It's the tail end of the hospital shift change rush hour on Marsh Lane in Oxford.
Whar percentage of drivers are extending their journey to work by taking a side road cut through via Elms Drive, that leads them away from their destination (the hospital)?
Approximately, zero?

OCC want to trial quiet lanes on roads that are largely rural in character.
Like this one, in suburban Marston, which green councillor Emily Kerr, thinks would a good fit.
Road closures would be part of OCCs scheme. Which would be an expansive interpretation of what's allowed.

This is one of the roads OCC is likely to try to close for their rural LTN scheme. Witney Road, connecting Brize with Witney. The area is scheduled for massive development. Closing the road will make getting to Witney by car hideous - which is, of course, the idea.

If Witney residents believe Lib Dems Labour when they say they don't intend to remove parking / increase the charge ... they should look at what's happened in Jericho where they've made it £19 to park for 2 hours here during the day. Wake up Witney. witneygazette.co.uk/news/261…

And so it begins. LTNs in rural Oxfordshire. It starts with just ten. The council declares it a success and begins the rollout.

Motorists pay massive taxes to use the roads, but they're increasingly being banned from significant parts of the network. The policy is now spreading to rural areas, where cars are essential, as part of the power elite's plan to restrict travel. itv.com/news/meridian/2026-0…

So what happens when nearly 90% of people oppose a pointless, unnecessary ultra-low speed limit in an area ruled by ‘Liberal Democrats’?
They ram it through anyway, because Liberal Democrats couldn’t give a tuppenny shit about democracy.

Your periodic reminder that OCC's congestion charge and traffic filters schemes don't place a single new restriction on out-of-town parents dropping their kids off at North Oxford's numerous private schools.
Funnily enough, traffic and congestion hasn't dropped around here.

Behold, the new leader of Oxfordshire County Council.
He outlines his transport vision at minute 5.
Spoiler alert, it involves a hurt finger.

OCC is also giving itself the power to impose permit parking in every village and town in West Oxfordshire with that document.

The changes to parking planned by the LibDems for West Oxon's market towns and villages would have a detrimental impact on small high street business
🚗Increase car park charges
🚗 Reduce the number of car parking spaces in car parks and on street

Fair.
To which add:
Thousands of consultees he ignored.
Everyone whose buses were cancelled following the introduction of the LTNs.
Everyone suffering from displaced traffic he claimed had evaporated - especially medics working on 12 hours shifts whose commute he made longer.
Andrew Gant says he got horrid online abuse.
Nothing compared to the pain he forced on east oxford business owners who had to shut their businesses bcoz of what he did to us
Dreams crushed, income lost, debts to pay. he f***ks off with no consequences

Take care on the A40 this morning (heading past the turning to the Marston flyover) - the Marsh Lane queue is spilling onto the dual carriageway. Traffic also queuing for a mile coming from Woodeaton village. All courtesy of the extra traffic since the Congestion Charge went in.

The Congestion Charge continues to deter customers getting to our shops.
"Certainly, the signs are designed to put people off heading into Oxford and are therefore misleading.
"And who suffers from this deception - local business."
