Oxfordshire County Council is asking for views on the proposal to introduce a 20mph speed limit on the unnamed road through the hamlet of Bainton
which will replace the existing 30mph speed limit but also extend the limit south-westwards to include the access to ‘Watergate Farm’, replacing a section of 60mph National speed limit in the process. The proposals have been put forward to help improve road safety on local roads, and follows the subsequent completion of the implementation phase of the County-wide 20mph project at the end of the 2025/26 financial year.

Details are also available to view on the Councils consultation portal at the following link: https://letstalk.oxfordshire.gov.uk/bainton_20mph2026
Any objections or other representations on the proposals should be submitted to Oxfordshire County Council by Friday 27th February 2026.
