9. Parish Business –
   

   REMINDER: For Information: Oxfordshire County Council Highways Engagement Team will meet with us on 5^th February 2025 at 2pm starting at the Memorial Hall. The Clerk has raised the following items for that on-site meeting

   * dangerous overtaking on the derestricted part of Kingsey Road outside the residental premises named “The Pump House”

   * speeding past the residences at the entrance to the 30MPH section on Thame Road adjacent Helpful Hirings.

   * additional matters that can be covered on other Parish Roads (Manor Road danger to ambulatory pedestrians and animals – dogs/horses etc, vehicles failing to stop at the Crossroads – claims that they did not see the signs? or road markings , Chinnor Road – speeding up after the SID and generally ignoring the 20MPH posted limit, Windmill Road – excessively large HGVs damaging the verges as they should not be using narrow country lane type roads rather they should use the main classified roads etc). Additionally due to issues at the roundabout in Thame – ring road junction with Kingsey Road B4012 and Thyrop way – many drivers in the morning and evening use Windmill Road, Thame road, and Chinnor Road through the village as a bypass to avoid this roundabout – most exceed the speed limits and pay little attention to the fact they are on a country road in a residential area.
