The Cabinet Member for Highway Management, Councillor Gant, considered a report by the Corporate Director, Environment and Place, which recommended approval, as advertised, of the proposed extension of the 30mph speed limit on the B4437 Forest Road.
Councillor Gant noted that both this item and the next item on the agenda concerned proposals to reduce speed limits, which was a key part of Oxfordshire County Council’s policy programme.
Regarding the proposals set out in this report, he stated they were in response to a new development and that the reduction in the speed limit had been agreed when granting consent to the scheme. In addition, the proposals covered an existing turning to a hamlet. He also noted that the proposals created a buffer into a 20mph zone further along the road.
Councillor Gant stated there had been some written representations in response to the proposals but that he was satisfied that the officers had made a case for introducing the proposals
