New Road Markings
OCC’s diagram for the planned road markings at the junction of Church Road
and Kingham Road is available from the Parish Clerk or any Parish
Councillor. PC is considering this scheme and would welcome residents’ comments.

lozenge area in the centre of the road. The hatched area to the side is a
proposal by OCC to prevent corner cutting.
