People cycling between Oxford and Witney will soon have an uninterrupted route, thanks to the county council.

Work to complete the last section of cycle track between Witney and Oxford starts on February 23, as part of the Witney Integrated Transport Strategy.

The scheme will provide an on-road cycle lane in Witney, along Oxford Hill between Church Lane and the new junction with Jubilee Way, and an off-road cycleway and footpath from Jubilee Way linking to the existing cycleway on the A40.

The work is expected to take eight weeks and may cause off peak traffic delays.
