North Oxford is all LTNs

Oxford, Transport — November 2024

One of the questions that keeps coming up on social media is "why are there no LTNs in North Oxford?" Well in fact all of North Oxford consists of LTNs, with the exception only of Walton St - Kingston Rd, which carries too much motor traffic for a Low Traffic Neighbourhood. (Moreton Rd also carries too much motor traffic for an LTN, but it is classified as part of the B4495 so at least theoretically its problem is a lack of pedestrian crossings and cycling infrastructure rather than too much traffic — and it is not, in any event, part of any key cycling routes.) more
