The largest ever programme of travel surveys across Oxfordshire has finished.

Over the past six months, Oxfordshire County Council has carried out roadside traffic surveys at 48 sites, including Botley Road and Marston Ferry Road.

They have also interviewed rail passengers, park-and-ride users and bus passengers at almost 150 stops and visited nearly 4,000 homes to ask residents about the journeys they make.

Video surveys and traffic counts were also conducted at the most congested junctions on Oxford's ring road.

County Hall estimates more than 40,000 people provided information.

The information gathered will be analysed by the council to find out where road users in Oxfordshire are coming from and going to.

The council will use the information to start planning how money can be spent most effectively to make journey times more reliable.

Last year, it was announced that highways planners had successfully bid for £62m of Government money to help fund an Access to Oxford project - specifically allocated to reduce congestion on the A34 and on the northern and southern approaches to the city.
