Our parish councillors continue to work with neighbouring parishes to respond to proposals for North Witney housing development that would affect the whole neighbourhood. We are campaigning, as Witney Infrastructure Neighbourhood Group (WING), for the infrastructure that would be needed if planning permission is given for North Witney. In particular, Crawley would like to see the construction of the West End Link (WEL) that would encourage drivers to route through Witney rather than taking a cut-through route via Crawley to get over the river. The WEL could also provide an embankment that would retain flood water in the river valley and reduce the risk of flooding in Witney town centre. We have produced another report to explain how this would work and a copy is attached for your information. Please get back to me or any of the parish councillors if you have any questions.
Best wishes
