On behalf of Oxfordshire County Council, and as one of the engineers responsible for the delivery of the resurfacing scheme at The Broadway in Kidlington, I like to contact the local parish councils directly to inform and discus logistics, as this tends to make the scheme run smoother. Am aware you should be consulted as part of the TTRO process but always like to make sure. As The Broadway falls within the ‘Dogwood’ ward, I have hopefully included those councillors responsible for this ward, as well as the clerk, Chair & Vice-Chair. Apologies if I have inadvertently missed anyone.

OCC have programmed to complete full width resurfacing of both sides of The Broadway within a single daytime full road closure, following which we will reinstate all legal and existing road markings.

• Thursday 10^th July; 07:00 – 19:00Hrs – Full closure of The Broadway, Kidlington

This is purely a maintenance scheme so currently everything will be reinstated ‘like for like’.  A fully signed diversion will be installed advising residents how to get in / out of this estate via the Yarnton Road instead.  All the parking bays within The Broadway, and those located within 10m either side along The Parade service Road have been formally suspended for the single daytime duration. This should ensure additional room for materials and plant. 

I have attached copies of the GA drawing showing the agreed scope, the diversion route which will be signed, along with a copy of published TTRO giving us powers to formally close the adopted highway.

I also attach a copy of the letter which currently sits with the OCC Senior Officer for review, before I print and post.  The letter is timed to arrive two weeks prior to starting on site, which is also when we will install the advance warning signs at either end of The Broadway.

Please review this information and hopefully this all makes sense.

I would welcome any comments you may have and am happy to discuss further as required.

I would also appreciate it, if you could publicise this information on your website, social media feeds or newsletters as you see fit.

The wider I can circulate the information, the more informed all will be ??
