Notice of Temporary Traffic Order
Didcot, South Moreton and Little Wittenham
Public Footpaths & Bridleways near Didcot
Numbers 189/23/10, 354/16/10, 354/3/10, 287/18/10, 283/6/10
Prohibition of Through Traffic
Date of Order: 29 September 2025
Coming into force: 1 October 2025
This Order is being introduced to facilitate footpath surfacing works which are anticipated to take 6 months to complete.
The effect of the Order is to temporarily prohibit the public using Public Footpaths & Bridleways near Didcot (Numbers FP189/23/10, Bridleway 354/16/10, Bridleway 354/3/10, FP. 287/18/10, and FP.283/6/10) between Didcot and Little Wittenham. Appropriate traffic signs will be displayed to indicate when the measures are in force. Exemptions are included for emergency services and for the works and for access to premises which are only accessible from the closed sections. There will be no alternative off-road routes for pedestrians while the works and closures are taking place. They will be closed by clear highways signage where the works are in place, and will reopen when not being actively worked on or in use.
The works are expected to take 2-3 weeks at a time and allow routes that have been worked on to be reopened, but may be affected by weather conditions, meaning for much of the 6-month period there will be no works taking place on the paths themselves. This Order will remain in force for a maximum period of 6 months or until the works have been completed whichever is the sooner. (Ref: T16366/MR)
