HS2 / EKFB : A quick update on the precast segment deliveries to Chipping Warden. The deliveries will take place between 7-9am on 22 May. The reason for the 7am start, rather than 5am, is due to the Oxfordshire overnight roadworks on the A361 being postponed by one week to the Saturday night. It will involve approximately 5 wide load HGV’s. Last week’s delivery went well as a first delivery, and we plan to continually refine how we roll out the traffic management, as well as form up the HGV’s, to minimise disruption. A link to the Chipping Warden Tunnel Update, which includes more information, maps and photographs, is available on the following link: https://assets.hs2.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/AWN_Notice-of-Green-Tunnel-Works_May_2022.pdf

Announcement from Stagecoach Stagecoach Service 200 Update Banbury – Daventry Service 200 secured for an additional period We are pleased to confirm that local authority funding has been secured to enable us to continue running service 200 between Banbury and Daventry for an additional period. The service will operate to its current timetable up until 27th August 2022. This interim support has been jointly provided by West Northamptonshire Council and Oxfordshire County Council, in order to allow further consideration of the potential options in relation to the long term future of public transport connectivity in the area.
The Parish Council has received notification from Stagecoach that they will be cancelling the 200 service between Banbury and Daventry from 4th April. The Parish Council are very concerned about the impact this will have on a number of our residents and are currently looking in to all possible options to resolve this. We will provide an update when we know more.
