The idea of these barriers must have been from some uninformed desk jockey who never drives on these roads to have thought this would be a good idea

As a courier driver this makes life very difficult.
Especially after lockdown it doesn’t help at all.
Very stupid

Causing dreadful gridlock along Hollow way. Daughter is now late for college every day. A half hour journey took 2 hours. This is unacceptable. It is causing increased levels of car fumes. I feel sorry for the poor residents who live on Hollow way.

It used to take us 4 minutes to get from Cowley centre to minchery farm now it takes 16 mins doesn’t make sense to be out an extra 12 mins on the road polluting the air

The LTN barriers are regularly causing absolute gridlock around all the major roads around Cowley - it's never been this bad in the past unless there has been major road works or an accident. I'm arriving late at work now & these LTNs are increasing emissions for us all, not reducing them. The Council have to remove them.

Maybe nice for the residents who now have quite roads but it has backed up traffic for all the other roads and takes an hour to get out of Cowley. Stupid idea please get rid!!!

You make more pollution by going all the way around and being sat in traffic

Since you put these LTNs in the traffic has become horrendous. Everywhere is at a standstill.
I think you need to go back to the drawing board and re-assess the situation. It may be a pleasure for some but it blighting the lives of others who live on the traffic clogged routes.

Terrible idea. Not needed and makes short journeys much longer therefore more polluting.

What on earth is going on in Oxford? I lived in Oxford a large part of my life but I'm glad to be living elsewhere now. Visiting Littlemore was just awful, awful, shame on you.

This has increased my commute from 20 mins to over an hour every day. I have no choice other than to use a car. This is a terrible proposal by the council and only people who are unaffected would support it (assuming they are naive enough to actually believe this reduces pollution to any significant degree).

Totally unnecessary and very inconvenient and all it is doing is pushing the traffic around over routes that's is taking longer so they for more polution and abusing power. Damaging to local shops that's losing bisness.
