Oxfordshire Travel Choices – On Campus Today

By 4 comments

The Oxfordshire Travel Choices team are on Campus now until 2:00pm. They are in the foyer of the Space Applications Catapult Centre.

They are there to answer questions about travelling to the Campus (yes they know about puncture alley) and there are free promotional items, fluorescent jackets, helmet covers etc.

Please go along and let them know you are a HarBUG member so that they know cycling is a serious transport option on the Campus.

      Did my bit & raised my usual issue of access from the south i.e. choice of A34 or farmer’s track from bottom of Bury Down.

        Thanks Matt! I couldn’t make it but that’s exactly what I would’ve raised!
        Did they give any feedback?

      Went over as well, main points discussed were ‘puncture alley’ heavily rutted track ‘Icknield Way’ but also gave them some positive feedback.

      Only that it sounded like it would only serve a few people, so I mentioned about all the [new] residents of Chilton who might also benefit, for transport or leisure activities. They commented that the along-the-side-of-the-A34 option would be hampered by the cost of traffic management during any works. They only have a tiny budget, targetted at Science Vale transport.
      But they were interested, and asked me to email them a screenshot of the map I showed them, which I did (along with the somewhat fanciful suggestion of it being part of a “campus bike ring-road with multiple access points” (…worth a try, anyway). They welcomed further comments from people (on all relevant issues) to southandvale@oxfordshire.gov.uk
