SCHOOL travel time has increased by up to an hour since a new traffic calming scheme was implemented. In March of this year, Oxfordshire County Council began a trial of a Low Traffic Neighbourhood [LTN] in Church Cowley, Temple Cowley and Florence Park. The controversial scheme includes putting planters or barriers on particularly streets to stop through-flow traffic. The council has now proposed a plan for another LTN trial in East Oxford – affecting St Mary’s, St Clements and Divinity Road. Results from their month-long consultation revealed that the council’s Special Education Needs transport team raised concerns about the time it was taking children to get to school since the Cowley LTN was introduced.
