Bridge struck again !

Reported via mobile in the Bridges category anonymously at 12:50, Saturday 4 July 2026

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

The barriers have only been fixed last week and another HGV has struck the bridge again!!!!! My reply to my previous report a couple of weeks ago of a HGV striking the pillar again said that the road and bridge were being reviewed from a HGV restriction. This needs to also address the issue of walkers parking cars across the junction which significantly reduces the turning area for HGVs that can’t turn from the bridge onto the 90 degree junction in a single manoeuvre. This parking issue has been reported months ago but nothing appears to be happening to resolve it.

Council ref: ENQ261107011
