This is your opportunity to talk about "Visit Witney"... Why visitors should come to our town, what's nice about Witney and what is not, what could be done to improve the town for visitors and give them an even better experience, the ways that residents might benefit (or for that matter not benefit), how Witney compares with other similar towns... The floor is entirely yours!
We have deliberately not started with lots of photographs and descriptions of the best-known Witney sites and sights, because we do not wish to lead the conversation... but wish the direction to come from you. So you are very welcome to add any and all photographs etc to your posts to help make your points, and we will build galleries to illustrate how we all see Witney as the conversation develops.
To help keep things as easy to follow as possible, we have set out some 'categories', and invite your posts, and comments on those posts, exactly as you please.
And now, over to you... Please log in and kick off!
I completely agree with this. Transport both to and from the town and within the town is not planned at all, there is already massive pressure on the infrastructure which will only get worse as more housing is built. Closure of the high street with no plan on the horizon on what is being done to it OR the impact the closure has had on other roads is criminal imho and indeed the central car parks are already close to capacity. A private town planner who supports changes to the high street is on record as saying more parking and better transport links need to go hand in hand with any changes to it sadly the council haven’t listened. We also need a proper approach to walking and cycling around the town, the half arsed painting of cycle lanes has not helped cyclists or vehicles imho more investment is needed into these schemes so they are done right as opposed to a box ticking exercise!!
