The Going Car Free Challenge is now open! 🚶♀️🚍🧑🦽🚄 🚲
Earlier this year, we teamed up with Low Carbon Oxford North to invite 12 drivers in Oxford to go three weeks without using their car and they loved it!
So we’re opening up the challenge to YOU!

For Cyclox, Danny Yee said “Something has clearly gone wrong with the cycling infrastructure in this proposal: it’s not direct, not coherent and not accessible.”
Robin Tucker for Coalition for Healthy Streets and Active Travel agreed: “This scheme should be a lot better. We can’t support a flawed scheme.”
Road closure Friday to Monday Linacre College. Marston cycle path expected to remain open, except a short period Friday lunchtime when cyclists and pedestrians may be paused by the traffic marshals on safety grounds. Cyclox Marston Cyclepath Old Marston PC Mary Clarkson
Oxfordshire County Council’s Cabinet has signed off a £4m programme of works to move closer to ‘Vision Zero’, eliminating deaths and serious injuries on the county’s roads. £1.6m will be spent on the junctions with the worst incident records, which could include the Plain in Oxford.
