LAST week I went to the public exhibition held by Oxfordshire County Council over the Headington Access Transport plan.

I noted with pleasure that the plan for a bus lane in Cherwell Drive has been withdrawn but that they intend to take away the roundabout at the junction of Marsh Lane and Cherwell Drive.

I have just done a traffic survey there (I am asked by the public to do them,) on February 11 for two hours between 7.30am and 9.30am.

In that time 1,261 cars and vans, 20 motorcyclists, 11 large lorries, 14 cyclists, three ambulances, one coach and one tractor all seemed to get through without too much trouble.

However, if traffic lights are now replacing the roundabout, there will be delays.
