Next week @LabourOxon will be voting on whether to spend £5.8m on an utterly superfluous zero emmision zone expansion. This is despite pollution being at record lows in the zone, and the punitive levels of the planned fees. And they wonder why they're losing votes to the indies.

It’s time for the election performance from Labour. Listening was the bare minimum you failed at for 5 years. No one trusts you or any organisation to pull together a representative panel when time after time you have backed this stuff.

Our challenge to @LabourOxon : bring forward proposals to February's county council meeting to scrap the traffic filters. There's now a majority of councillors against the scheme, and you can over-rule the current council leadership. Feel free to use this suggested wording.

Tired of these people thinking everyone is stupid; county elections are 6 months away, he will be claiming he has a mandate and running away from wheelchair bound residents who’s lives he has ruined again in 7 if people believe this.

Labour Cllr Charlie Hicks said: “We believe the decision by the cabinet to install traffic filters in 2022 has timed out. Too much has changed since then. It’s time to give the public a direct say on what happens next." 👏👏👏 oxfordmail.co.uk/news/24782186.…

Last night, Oxford City Council voted in favour of an idea to remove 25% of on-street car parking, on the grounds that it would help make the city more walkable. Where to start with such a policy? The Divinity Road area is the obvious stand-out candidate location. 🤣

"Here's a lovely map of nice walking routes". Oh, by the way, we also plan to axe 25% of on street car parking. But concentrate on the lovely map.

Rather than debating an @Ind_Ox_Alliance motion to publish data on pollution levels inside the planned zero emmision zone expansion area, it appears that Oxford Labour and LibDem councillors mostly voted to end the meeting far earlier than normal. How cynically unaccountable.

If anyone can find any reference to how much @OxfordshireCC is spending on traffic filters in this monster 201-page report, feel free to post it on here. They seem a little...coy. But yes, we did notice the multimillion LED streetlight spend. And the big council earner increase.

Be honest: it's really part of the traffic filters preparation, isn't it? Imagine having to register with the council that you're an informal carer, to be able to do your job - if that involves driving along a main Oxford road to get to them. Authoritarian. Intrusive. Unwanted.

When you get to an 89% opposition to a proposed council money-making scheme - and council officers are still recommend approved - you have to wonder at which point a council can be regarded as pushing its powers so far that outside regulators should investigate @CMAgovUK

How about, for once, your administration admit you made a big - mistake and don't try to bluster your way though the idea that you never intended to introduce measure without any further consultation. People can, you know, read.

Interesting to hear three Oxfordshire Labour County Councillors condemn a policy on street lighting that they themselves voted for when they were in the Cabinet on October 18th 2022. Item 133/22 here: mycouncil.oxfordshire.gov.uk/ieListDocument…

Having a "20-minute neighbourhood" policy means that residents can legitmately demand new facilities from councils, accessible within a 20 minute walk. So obviously @OxfordshireCC now wants to ditch the concept, in favour of the less accountable "liveable neighbourhood" idea.

What do you do when your traffic schemes make busy roads busier and are at odds with Vision Zero? If you’re OCC you change the definition. The cycle lanes already did some heavy lifting on the ltn safety summary; let them cover up more bad ideas.

Oxfordshire County Council were expecting to rake in £1.8m of traffic filters fines for the 2024-25 financial year, before the income stream was scuppered by the Botley Road closure. That's a hefty sum of cash, considering it was due to come into force half way through the year.

Congrats to Lansdown residents for successfully legally challenging their proposed LTN. Is it a coincidence that the LTNs in Bath & Oxford commenced in the less affluent areas who would struggle to crowd fund such amounts to mount a legal challenge?

.@Ipsos the company who undertook the Government research on LTNs, confirm the survey of residents was confined to sampling resident postcodes WITHIN the boundaries of the x4 selected LTN (NOT outside). The views of residents on roads receiving LTN displaced traffic was omitted.
