The Environment Agency are asking for feedback on features of the Oxford Flood Alleviation Scheme design including bridges, footpath furniture i.e. benches, and information boards, as well as asking for information to help with construction plans and getting general feedback on the scheme.
The consultation was originally planned to run in May, but was postponed due to the pre-election period for the General Election. This consultation will run from 22nd June to 20th July 2017.
The latest scheme design was exhibited at a series of four public drop-in events in May. The information shared at the events is available in the Consultation Document, which can be downloaded from the consultation webpage:
