| 130744 |  | The road is used as a cut through and many of the cars speed which makes it dangerous for getting my toddler in and out of the car - often the cars do not wait for me to do this and squeeze past me which is terrifying. The number and dominance of cars is causing increasing air pollution and this doesn't feel like the residential street that it should be - which is a street open for all users - cyclists, pedestrians, human interactions. Car's should be at the bottom of the street user hierarchy. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 130704 |  | There is an overwhelming amount of traffic on a small residential street. Often traffic becomes backed up well past one even two turns. I regularly see parked cars with broken mirrors, side damage, and other incidents. Thank you | Temporary closure: Problem closure |

| 130633 |  | The hedges are growing out over the pavement so it is difficult to pass someone safely without stepping out into the cycle lane. Can the council require the owners of the land to cut them back? It’s where the bowling club used to be | Track: Problem track |
| 130623 |  | People speeding through dangerously between Divinity and Southfield. Make the whole area from Hill Top to Cowley rd between Divinity and Southfield residents access only. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 130621 |  | People speeding through dangerously between Divinity and Southfield. Make the whole area from Hill Top to Cowley rd between Divinity and Southfield residents access only. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 130542 |  | Pavement/road here have sunk/been damaged by vehicles and are often blocked by bikes in term, which means it's difficult to avoid walking in the centre of the road, which is a popular route for cyclists. Request colleges whose contractor vehicles have probably damaged the pavement do proper repairs and request students not to leave bikes on the pavement. In the longer term this should be completely repaved to be a shared route with priority for cycles/pedestrians over vehicles. | Track: Problem track |
| 130536 |  | This is a dangerous junction for cyclists turning to or from Elsfield that is uncomfortable to use due to speed of traffic. Signage/road markings/layout improvements needed. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 130086 |  | Cycles have to mix with traffic. There’s plenty of space for cycle lanes here but no provision. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 129499 |  | Too much thro traffic, not safe for cyclists | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 129327 |  | Pavements on at least one side of hill Top Road (and Southfield Rd) need to be able to be walked along safely - and made safe for wheelchair and buggy users. | Track: Problem track |
| 129124 |  | Used as a cut-through between Cowley & Iffley Roads, but pavement is very narrow at the Hurst St end. Has high foot and bicycle traffic. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 128921 |  | Too much traffic trying to use a road where only one car can pass. Make it access only. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 128920 |  | Too much traffic trying to use a road where only one car can pass. Make it access only. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 128898 |  | Reorganise cycle track so that it isn’t constantly interrupted by driveways, trees and other obstacles | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 128897 |  | Remove on-pavement parking throughout the city for the benefit of all pedestrians, especially families pushing buggies/ walking with young children, people using disability aids, people with sight impairments | Track: Problem track |
| 128847 |  | Access only road, for residents. Wider pavement, and possibly street parking only, remove the on-curb parking on the west side | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 128761 |  | Widen footpath so pedestrians can pass without having to step into road. | Track: Problem track |
| 128691 |  | The road is 20mph but there's little signage so every motorist (no exaggeration!) takes this straight at 30mph. There's no real room for a extra cycling provision but some way of slowing down the traffic on this busy road would be ideal. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 128373 |  | Buses stop on each side of the road, then more buses pass down the middle of the road to overtake them. Cyclists get stuck behind parked buses or risk being crushed by overtaking/oncoming buses, and visibility is poor. Change the layout to give more space to pedestrians and cyclists. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126920 |  | Cycleways blocked by parked cars. Need proper enforcement. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126918 |  | No meaningful enforcement of parking restrictions on Cowley Road means cars park on pavement, double yellow lines etc. Proper enforcement with meaningful penalties needed. | Track: Problem track |
| 126865 |  | Pavement parking on Bertie Place forces children and parents pushing prams on the way to Bertie Park to walk down the middle of the street. | Track: Problem track |
| 126860 |  | There seems to have been no thought put into how a cyclist should get between Oxpens and Norfolk Street. Can we have a stretch of cycle track here please. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126856 |  | The way through from Churchill Drive to Massey Close is blocked to bikes. This would provide a good low traffic route for cycling between the Churchill Hospital/Old Road Campus and The Slade, if only this barrier were removed. Please make this opening large enough for all bikes, including cargo bikes, and bikes with trailers. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126853 |  | The cycle lane here is set up so that there are always queuing cars blocking it at the entrance/exit to Warneford Hospital. Redesign so that the cycle lane is protected for at least the stretch between the Warneford and Old Road, and preferably for the whole length of Roosevelt Drive | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126839 |  | Leopold Street, Hurst Street, Aston Street is used as a rat run by drivers wanting to avoid the speed humps on Magdalen Road. A filter here only allowing bikes through would cut out all of this traffic while leaving easy access to all streets. It would also help to make Randolph Street, Hawkins Street, Green Street, and this end of Leopold Street one way to motor traffic. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 126275 |  | Too much traffic for safe cycling | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126273 |  | Too much speeding traffic up residential roads - dangerous to cycle, narrow pavements | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 126220 |  | Where does the cycle path go? | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126216 |  | Pavement here is way to narrow. All pushchairs and wheelchairs are forced onto the road. Can the on street parking be removed to provide more space? | Track: Problem track |
| 126207 |  | Quarry Nursery nearby and cars fly through this narrow street. PLEASE close this road off to through traffic for the safety of the parents and small children | Track: Problem track |
| 126119 |  | This street should be closed to through traffic. It is used as a rat run by taxis and other none residential vehicles. The pavements are very narrow and with the amount of cars parked on either side of the road, there is always a traffic jam. It is impossibel to maintain social distance on the pavement here, and cycling is a challenge given the congestion with cars using this as a short cut from the cowley road to Morrell Avenue. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 126075 |  | Remove on street parking here to allow space for segregated cycle lane on a key route to Cheney School, Brookes University and the hospitals (including the nurseries there). There is no need for street parking on Morrell avenue as all houses have space to park 2 cars per house on their driveways. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126030 |  | Divinity and Southfield Rds should have clear cycle routes marked and become safer for cyclists and pedestrians due to less traffic | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126027 |  | Divinity and Southfield Rds should have clear cycle routes marked and become safer for cyclists and pedestrians due to less traffic | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126022 |  | Close Southfield Rd to prevent congestion and enable social distancing, especially for all school and uni students | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 126019 |  | Close Southfield Rd to prevent congestion and enable social distancing, especially for all school and uni students | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 126018 |  | Close Divinity Rd to prevent congestion and enable social distancing, especially for all school and uni students | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 126014 |  | Close Divinity Rd to through traffic to prevent congestion on Rd and enable social distancing | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125997 |  | Downhill of the footbridge, the path could be made significantly wider by removing a lot of the vegetation that has slowly crept in from the road side of the pavement. | Track: Problem track |
| 125995 |  | Dedicated cycle lanes needed. Despite huge amounts of space cyclists have to use the road or shared pavement and then merge into traffic at roundabouts which is dangerous. Separate cycle lanes and junctions would make this much clearer and safer | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125985 |  | Narrow cycle lanes with fast traffic. Removing the north side cycle lane and widening south side cycle lane would give more space. Allowing cyclists to share north side raised pavement when going uphill would enable this. As its a steep hill cyclists sharing footway on north side would only be able to go slowly. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125982 |  | Cycle path forces you in front of traffic. Taking a couple of meters of the land to the south would mean the cycle lane could go straigh across withouth having to merge into traffic | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125977 |  | Reduce the width of the road entrace. It's extremely wide (4 times the raod width) and cars drive fast around it. Also moving the bollards already around the shop to the edge of the pavement would prevent all the cars parking on the pavement | Track: Problem track |
| 125974 |  | Pinch point on zebra crossing forces cyclists in front of traffic. Replacing pinch poin with bollards would allow stop this. Also continuing the cycle lane all the way through headington would connect the routes and make it much less intimidating to cycle | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125972 |  | Cycle lanes needed on both sides of the road to connect cycle route. Busy car traffic makes this intimidating to cycle through. Making the old paved front gardens in front of shops on the north side of the road into proper pavement could help create more space as could removing some parking. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125967 |  | Close Bullingdon Road to through traffic. Its a rat run for taxis, and cars and larger lorries between the Iffley and Cowley Roads. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125963 |  | Loading bay for cars to be removed to create a formal cycle way. At the moment cars use this a free parking rather than just for deliveries to the shops which means cyclists are pushed into the busy road which is unsafe for children cycling to and from school and in and out of central oxford. The loading bays can be converted to create extra either cycle storage space or cycle lane space that is segregated | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125960 |  | The pavement is not widen enough here to maintain social distance as there are vehices often parked on the narrow pavement and the shops store things on the already narrow pavement. | Track: Problem track |
| 125956 |  | The pavement is very narrow here. It is a dead end and so cars have no need to drive here given that the houses /flats do not have parking facilities. This is a key route to East Oxford primary school and to ensure a safe route for the preschoolers and primary children to walk and cycle to school cars should be prevented from accessing this street and the pavement should be widened and incorporate a cycleway. | Track: Problem track |
| 125951 |  | This road should be closed to traffic other than shop deliveries (with a bollard preventing cars from accessing it at other times). Many cars illegally park at this junction both on the road and pavement blocking the road for cyclists. and pedestrians. Many are people shopping at Tescos who don't want to pay for the car park behind the store. Note this is a key route for children walking to East Oxford Primary school and the narrow pavements and large number of vehicles blocking this space present a danger to the young children. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125947 |  | The pavement is too narrow here for pedestrians to maintain social distance given that people have to queue outside Tescos. | Track: Problem track |
| 125946 |  | There needs to be a segregated cycle path here so that children can safely cycle to and from the swimming pool, and play park at Meadow lane, as well as into Oxford city centre | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125943 |  | In theory cars cannot enter Bullingdon road here but cars often go through the wrong way, also many non residential cars use Bullindgon Road as a cut through between the iffley road and cowley road which means residents in particular children walking to east oxford primary school face dangers as they need to walk in the road to maintain social distance, given that this street has high foot fall out of the residential neighbourhood onto the cowley road. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125939 |  | Non-residential traffic - both cars, taxis and vans use this spot to pavement park at the junction blocking the pavement. At the same time many vehicles use this narrow residential street as a cut through meaning pedestrians cannot social distance on pavements or the road. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125902 |  | Very narrow cycle path which is pinned agaisnt a wall. Often big brances fall into cycle path causing us to swerve into the busy road. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125701 |  | People gather outside restaurants and food shops, making passing with sufficient distance difficult. Widen pavement on stretches near shops, make roads single lane, which has additional benefit of slowing down traffic. | Track: Problem track |
| 125700 |  | Narrow pavements on either side and across the bridge, distancing not possible. Make road and pavement areas into one and regulate traffic, alternating between people and cars. | Track: Problem track |
| 125644 |  | Traffic lights need to adjusted to be activated by cycles heading South and turning right towards Kennington. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125636 |  | Replace the roadway next to the pavement with pavement. | Track: Problem track |
| 125493 |  | Removal of parked cars allowing a proper segregated cycleway | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125490 |  | Howard Street is increasingly becoming a rat-run, which makes it dangerous for cyclists and children. If the road was blocked between Golden Road and Catherine St, it would still be easy for local residents to work there way round, but would not allow Howard Street to be used as a cut-through | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125489 |  | Remove all car-parking, allowing for the ineffective and dangerous narrow painted cycle lanes to be re-built as proper segregated cycles lanes. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125287 |  | Allow cycle traffic through University Park. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125286 |  | Anti-cycling gate should be remove to enable access from Ewin Close to Beechey Ave. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125283 |  | Cherwell drive cycle path needs to be extended all the way to Summertown. Awful gap in provision currently. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125281 |  | Stop cars from entering central Oxford. Not enough space for cars. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125280 |  | Close to car through traffic. Underpass not wide enough for car access and no space for cars in Central Oxford anyway. No reasons to allow cars past this point. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125276 |  | Bridge needs a modal filter to remove trough car traffic. Not enough space in central Oxford for cars. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125268 |  | Close Margaret Road to rat runners, vehicles for access to Margaret Road only. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125263 |  | Close Windmill Road to rat runners, promote bus and cycle use. Encourage motorists to use ring road and London Road. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125259 |  | Relocating bus stop away from junction with Margaret Road which has lots of traffic use would ease congestion and reduce hazards for all associated with poor visibility | Track: Problem track |
| 125257 |  | Filter rectory Road to prevent motor through traffic and improve conditions for people walking or cycling or living in the area. There is no reason whatsoever for motor through traffic on that road. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125255 |  | Cycle lanes would help prioritise cyclists near a school. Alternatively making this one way or closing entirely to vehicle users apart from local residents to park their cars. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125254 |  | Warneford Lane should be filtered to remove car through traffic, that would make Warneford Lane itself safe and also improve the whole neighbourhood. Current road layout on Warneford Lane is the worst in all of Oxford. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125252 |  | V large and fast moving vehicles far too close to pedestrians | Track: Problem track |
| 125250 |  | Filter motor through traffic to improve liveability and conditions for people walking and cycling. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125248 |  | V narrow and low elevation pavement mens pedestrians are routinely an inch or two away from fast moving and large vehicles. It is scary. | Track: Problem track |
| 125247 |  | Not enough space for motor through traffic. Should be filtered to improve conditions for walking and cycling. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125246 |  | Cycle path disappears on the last block before Marston roundabout in both directions. Needs continuous segregated cycle path. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125205 |  | Cars park on pavement. Doesn't increase carriageway to 2 full lanes; just done because of perceived danger to parked cars from speeders and rat-run. Could kerb be protected with wands spaced close enough that cars can't mount? | Track: Problem track |
| 125199 |  | Pavement very narrow and impossible to socially distance, with pavement often blocked by shop signs. | Track: Problem track |
| 125195 |  | Half of the pavement is taken over by cars: its impossible to get a wheelchair or double buggy down the pavement, let alone socially distance. | Track: Problem track |
| 125171 |  | The painted cyclelanes here are dangerously narrow. There should be a fully segregated cycleway along the whole length of Banbury Road, removing one lane for motor traffic if necessary. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125170 |  | The bus stop narrows the pavement too much for effective social distancing when walking past people waiting for a bug | Track: Problem track |
| 125168 |  | Cars park up on the pavement here, making it impossible to navigate on with a pushchair, let alone with social distancing. Mostly the front diveways are empty! | Track: Problem track |
| 125165 |  | The road is so dangerous; so many children going to schools and nurseries and cars tear through so fast. Cowley Rd is plenty wide and fast enough to handle the rat runners | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125164 |  | Godstow Road is used by rat-running commuters when the A34 is busy. Closing the road to motor vehicles would reduce problems with speeding vehicles on the blind sharp bends in Wolvercote, the narrow river bridges and the traffic lights on the railway bridge, and would likely increase footfall for the pubs on the riverwalk circuit. The exact location of the modal filter could be decided after consultation with residents and the pubs. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125161 |  | The footbridge adjacent to the Godstow Railway Bridge is not wide enough for social distancing. There are no suitable pavements on the railway bridge, but there is sufficient space. Pavements should be improved on the railway bridge so that a one-way system could be provided using the footbridge. | Track: Problem track |
| 125158 |  | A bus gate on Mere Rd could help provide Schoolstreets for Wolvercote school. Exemptions for residents would be needed. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125157 |  | A bus gate installed on the railway bridge on First Turn could help provide safe Schoolstreets to Wolvercote School. Residents of the St. Peter's Rd estate could still have access via Mere Rd. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125154 |  | There is no pavement outside St. Peter's church and further along First Turn to the west. Informal parking spaces should be removed and a pavement installed. This area is particularly dangerous during school rush hour and providing a pavement here would help. | Track: Problem track |
| 125153 |  | A modal filter should be placed on First Turn to stop rat-running motor vehicles and as part of providing safe Schoolstreets to Wolvercote school. With a modal filter, First Turn would become a safe cycling and walking route. By placing the filter on the corner near the pub, there would be enough turning space for service vehicles. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 125151 |  | A way of protecting cyclists turning into Bartlemas close is needed | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125149 |  | The cycleways on Woodstock Rd are very poor. There is neither enough room for pedestrians or cyclists, neither the cycleway nor footway is smooth or level because of dropped curbs for driveways, and the cycleway looses priority at side roads which have very limited visibility. One lane of traffic should be removed to provide a wider cyleway and footway | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125148 |  | Continue pavement to link to riverside pavement. We cycle through goose poop to get across, the cycle route over the old gasworks railway bridge fails to connect Whitehouse road to Oxpens because of barriers and this. | Track: Problem track |
| 125146 |  | Signage throught hthe estate towards Marston cycleway would be a help | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125144 |  | The works hoarding and signage are too late for cuclists and pedestrians to avoid moving into a blind corner | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 125143 |  | 6 paths converge here. Vehicles often park on the convergance area making it difficult for cyclists, wheelchair and pram users. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
