Thame Mayor to Press for Answers on Delayed Active Travel Route to Haddenham & Thame Parkway

30th January 2025

Thame Mayor, Councillor Andy Gilbert, will be seeking answers from Oxfordshire County Council on progress with the long-promised and long-delayed plans for an active travel route to Haddenham & Thame Parkway station when he attends a meeting of OCC's Place Overview and Scrutiny Committee on Wednesday 5th February. 

The Committee will be examining the County's emerging new rail strategy prior to a major report to OCC's Cabinet in April. Having good means of access to a local station - including by cycling, walking or wheeling - will be one aspect of the strategy. 

The Mayor will ask for an update on the feasibility work commissioned jointly by Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Councils over two years ago. He will be accompanied by members of the Thame-Haddenham Greenway group. 

The meeting starts at 10am. It's open to the public and will be held in County Hall, Oxford. For more information, please visit: https://mycouncil.oxfordshire.gov.uk/ieListMeetings.aspx?CommitteeId=1173 .

If you wish to keep informed about activities of the Greenway Group, please contact David at Haddenham Safe Walking and Cycling: [email protected]

It is not a grief support group or counselling session. These sessions have no agenda, objectives, or themes, allowing for organic, group-directed conversations about anything related to death, from end-of-life planning to fears and feelings, fostering open sharing in a respectful, confidential space. Death Cafe is run on a not-for-profit basis but if you are able to make…
