Oxfordshire County Council have issued two notices of road closures between 8th May and 10th May 2024 to install new poles. See details below.
The suggested alternative route for the Little Lane closure (notice T13489) is to use Hornton Lane, however notice T13488 states that Hornton Lane will be closed (see maps below). It may be that Little Lane and Hornton Lane will be closed at different times during the closure window but this is not clear from the notices. The Parish Council have queried this apparent anomaly with OCC and are awaiting a response.
