Oxfordshire County Council has approved temporary traffic restrictions around Oxford United's Kassam Stadium on match days.
Oxfordshire County Council has approved temporary road closures and parking restrictions around Oxford United's Kassam Stadium to manage traffic on match days and other authorised event days. The order, dated 19 October and coming into force on 26 October, covers Grenoble Road and roads around its four roundabouts from Robert Robinson Avenue to Guelder Road. It can remain in force for up to 18 months.
On match days, the circulatory roads of the four Grenoble Road roundabouts may be closed to keep traffic moving between east and west. Waiting, loading and unloading will be banned along the full length of Grenoble Road and at its junctions with side roads. Unrestricted parking areas on the north side of Grenoble Road will also be suspended.
Drivers whose usual route is closed will be directed to alternative roundabouts and told to return on the opposite carriageway. Other junctions may be closed if required, and lane closures may be used on local roads to allow one-way traffic. During major operational or emergency procedures, all of Grenoble Road may close entirely. The alternative route will be via the A4074 Henley Road, A4142 Eastern By-Pass and B480 Watlington Road.
