If you looking at @ollyglover.bsky.social ‘s survey - “what matters to you?”. This Olly. #pavementparking that’s out of control in #Didcot. One year and we can’t see change. Just more cars. But yeah, let’s fix the potholes for them? @badlyparkedox.bsky.social @oxfordclarion.bsky.social

The pavements on Gardiner St being generous as they are, there is plenty of space to park your car! ... NOT. --- And: Let them walk into Windmill Rd, with any luck they'll only get hit by a bike anyways.

Submitted by a new follower: "I took pictures even though I didn't know your account existed because I was so appalled by the parking!" -- yes, we hear you, dear follower, this is why we exist.

Another episode of "me moving scooters from blocking Divinity Road-Morrell avenue pavement".....

Voi: a) get on bluesky so I can shame tag you and b) sort this out! Stop making walking a hazard for my residents and others.

PSA:
Don't stop your car just before an infamously lethal roundabout (St Clements -> the Plain) and have a passenger open the door into the bike lane when a bike (me, in this case) is approaching.

I'd like to not contribute to the road collision stats. Thanks.

"Lo and behold, a pavement parker on New High Street actually had a ticket today! "

Yay!

"Feeling buoyed, we walked around the corner to London Rd, and straight into this disaster."

Boo!

Badly parked ebikes
A coalition of active travel advocates are calling for a significant expansion of shared e-bike and e-scooter schemes in Oxford, currently provided by Voi and Lime, saying shared bikes are a vital part of the solution to Oxford's transport problems and have transformed cycling in London.

@badlyparkedox.bsky.social I've seen worse (or possibly not). In Addison Crescent)

Pedestrians can just walk around, or stay at home or whatever, who cares as long as i have somewhere to park.

We pity anyone trying to walk/wheel on the pavements of Windmill Road. A lot of submissions this week!

Oxford’s secret pavement parking ban
Pavement parking is the scourge of people in wheelchairs or pushing buggies – and it’s getting worse. Crossovers and SUVs now account for 54.8% of new car sales in the UK. Cars are getting wider, but...

@livingstreets.bsky.social have found that Oxford is a #pavementparking hotspot.

Not an accolade we ever wanted.

What is Oxfordshire County Council and Oxford City Council going to do about it?
