STOPPING AIRPORT EXPANSION, STARTING AIRPORT CONVERSIONS TO OTHER USES

Why should we all oppose airport expansion? Why should we all strongly support conversion of some airports to other uses? Do we need to support so many people going abroad by plane when rail use would allow them to reach locations in Europe? Why should we all be subsidising airports by providing and sometimes maintaining the road and rail links which serve them?

THE WARNEFORD HOSPITAL RE-DEVELOPMENT: an impending traffic disaster

The re-development of the Warneford Hospital is to include an extra 230 parking spaces, some questionable traffic measures and there have yet to be staff parking restrictions on this site. Other sites and employers do restrict or obstruct staff parking to ensure their institution helps in the fight against traffic congestion in Oxford. We all have until 19 9 2025 to comment on the Warneford Hospital proposals, which are in an area heavily-congested in rush hour-schools. See our submission:
