Ducklington - proposed 20mph speed limit

Oxfordshire County Council wants to make our built environments safer and more attractive places to walk and cycle. To enable this, 20mph speed restrictions are being used to help promote alternative modes of transport for local travel.


We're therefore asking for your views on the proposal to introduce a 20mph speed limit within Ducklington, replacing the majority of the existing 30mph speed limit in the process. Existing sections of 30mph speed limits will remain on Standlake Road & Witney Road, with Officers having taken the current road environment & traffic usage into account.


The proposals are being put forward following road safety concerns raised by the parish. Further details on how the council is considering making 20mph the new 30mph for Oxfordshire communities can be found here


Have your say.


Please read the information provided on this consultation and take the time to complete the survey as your views and opinions matter. Your response should be completed and returned by 5pm on Friday 05 July 2024.


Whilst we will endeavor to answer simple queries during the course of the consultation, any more complex questions/issues will be appraised and dealt with as part of consultation process.


What happens next?


The county council will review the responses and if necessary (i.e. if objections are received) prepare a report to be presented to the Cabinet Member for Highway Management at a meeting scheduled for later in 2024. This will be a public meeting at which members of the public may apply to speak. The agenda and reports for meetings will be made available on the Oxfordshire County Council web site about a week before the meeting (please note that occasionally it is necessary to defer reports to a later meeting, and it is therefore advisable to check the agenda ahead of attending a meeting).
