At long last 'No Cycling' signs have been erected at both ends of the footpath through The Willows/Westfield Mobile Home park. There has been a lot of concern regarding anti-social behaviour in this area, and we have been trying to resolve the issue through the police Neighbourhood Action Group (NAG). The signs are to stop cyclists using this as a thoroughfare and being a danger to pedestrians.
Today the Vale Council Executive discussed re-routing the footpath to the edge of the site and will be writing to Oxfordshire County Council in the hope that this will hasten the process. Footpath diversions can take up to 5 years due to the complicated legal process and consultation, but it is hoped that things would be speeded up with the intervention of the district council. I went along to support this proposal and hope that we can get a satisfactory result for the residents concerned.
