Oxford to Cambridge Expressway

As you may have seen in the media, the government have now announced their decision on the broad corridor to be pursued for the development of the Expressway (Corridor B). It is expected that the Highways England will be investigating the route options within the corridor during the next year with public consultation following on detail of preferred routes in 2019.

The broad corridor being investigated is a northerly one but has 2 options for going east or west around Oxford and although lines on the government map are not fixed, there could be implications for the Baldons at the south eastern end of the corridor which will be of concern.  More information and maps are on the Highways England website https://highwaysengland.co.uk.  The local Expressway Action Group website also has a full update and  maps and there will be more information it becomes available. www.expresswayactiongroup.com/

The council will be discussing the implications and action we need to take.
