Communication with Stagecoach re the 200 bus service

Please see below communication between Cllr Malcolm Patterson and Stagecoach re the 200 bus service: 'Dear Mr Harrison Stagecoach 200 Bus Service between Banbury & Daventry and stopping in Wardington/Williamscot As you are no doubt aware Stagecoach announced the closure of this hourly service in February. There was a stay of execution until August to allow for consultations. This extension was funded by Northants CC and Oxfordshire CC. A further postponement until January 2023 has been agreed. We understand this is being funded solely by West Northants Unitary Authority. While most of the route is in Northamptonshire, we in this corner of Oxfordshire benefit enormously from it. Banbury also benefits. The people of West Northamptonshire are able to use public

FINAL CALL to action: planning application to build over 160 acres of Banbury farmland

The window for objections is about to close. Please ACT NOW! https://www.banburyguardian.co.uk/news/people/developers-shock-hamlet-with-premature-planning-application-to-build-over-160-acres-of-banbury-farmland-3721654 An application has been lodged with Cherwell District Council for outline planning permission to build industrial estates over 140 acres of ancient pasture on both sides of the A422 off Junction 11 of the M40 motorway. The development would link the new ‘Frontier Park’ warehousing with the M40 in the south, burying farmland once thought to be untouchable. The applicants say the industrial units would total 140,000 square metres and be used for storage and 24-hour distribution. To comment on the application see here https://planningregister.cherwell.gov.uk/Planning/Display/22%2F01488%2FOUT Comments must be made by June 30. A campaign group called Keep Nethercote Rural has set up a petition against the plan and also has a Facebook page

Reproduced below is a letter sent by Wardington Parish Council Chair, Malcolm Patterson, to Banbury MP Victoria Prentis. You are strongly encouraged to submit your objection, if indeed you do object, before the deadline of 30th June 2022. Dear Victoria It was only last week that we heard about the planning application above. The opportunity to object closes in less than 3 weeks. It involves a further 100+ acre warehousing development off the A361 close to Junction 11 of the M40. We in Wardington and other local villages in North Oxfordshire and South Northants are very alarmed. It would be more accurate to say ‘horrified’. The Banbury Guardian has launched a strong campaign against. Wardington Parish Council is still
