How schemes in Chipping Norton get decided.
Two councils involved
West Oxfordshire District Council decides the planning application, but Oxfordshire County Council is the highway authority and gives the highways response. We deal with both, so the evidence suits the county’s standards as well as the local plan.
What shapes schemes in Chipping Norton
A Cotswold market town where the A44, A361 and A3400 meet, with HGVs through the centre and the nearest station at Kingham. In the centre, the questions are usually servicing, parking and narrow streets. On the edges, it’s access, visibility and a safe walking route into town.
Roads, rail and buses
The main roads are the A44, A361 and A3400. There’s no railway station, so bus services and safe walking and cycling routes carry more weight.
