After great teamwork by residents and Ruth, and lots of press coverage (see earlier blogs), the County Council has issued an apology and are removing the double yellow lines form around the entry treatments in Latimer Road, Stapleton Road and Bickerton Road today.
The Oxford Mail reports that the OCC spokesman said: “We would also like to say sorry for causing this confusion and can only reiterate that the initial work was carried out with the best of intentions”
Residents in the area report that the lines are already being removed
Glad to see some common sense prevailing, although the money spent on raising the road surface to pavement level would have been better spent protecting a front line job rather than unecessary traffic calming.
