It was surprising to see our county council leader Keith Mitchell in Churchillian mode pledging to defend Oxford city centre.
With true British bulldog spirit he vows to stand firm in banning all traffic from the city centre.
It would look wonderful if medieval Queen Street were to be restored to its old fashioned glory, with olde worlde style cobble stones and lanterns.
Pedestrians would feel safer and the air would be cleaner, even though it was very reassuring to hear that the Oxford Bus Company has the cleanest emissions in the country.
However, I do think that including Broad Street in the plan might be taking things a bit too far, as it is a very wide street and can easily accommodate some light traffic.
It seems that it is all or nothing in Oxford transport strategies!
