  • Thank you for your report. I have re-visited this site and noted that the owners of this advertising board that was obstructing our North Hinksey Lane, West Way junction visibility/sight lines, have now removed it from this location, see latest photos. We have also made an agreement with Minty that their sign can remain at the following location, in front of 27 West Way, North Hinksey Lane, see latest photos, where it is not obstructing drivers visibility, until the works at the railway have been completed and the Botley Road closure has been lifted. I am therefore closing this report.
