In response to Susan Thomas’s concerns (Oxford Mail, September 18), I can assure her that the county council is not proposing any new bus lanes in the Headington shopping centre — and never has done.
A new eastbound bus lane, which will improve bus reliability along the route, will stop west of Osler Road and will not extend into the shopping centre.
We will not be extending bus lanes into the shopping area.
Improvements to Headington Road and London Road, between Pullens Lane and Osler Road, are currently under construction, and we expect to consult the public on detailed designs for the next phase, between Osler Road and Wharton Road, next spring.
