Meeting: 21/03/2017 - County Council (Item 118)

Motion From Councillor Mark Cherry

“The Bankside Road is needed urgently if the town is to avoid total gridlock on its roads. Oxfordshire is a net contributor to the National Economy and the North of the County continues to grow with the construction of 8000 houses and the construction of HS2. Therefore more businesses and more vehicles are inevitable. This issue has been talked about for over 30 years and it is now time for action.

 

"This Council calls on the Leader of Oxfordshire County Council to give urgent consideration of the Bankside link Roadand for this to be prioritised in the Banbury area strategy in LTP4.”
