Flooding update – evening 14 November

As people start to travel home from work, please do not come through Wendlebury to avoid the Junction 9 roundabout.
 
Main Street is particularly badly flooded outside the Lion so if you are wanting to reach the southern, Village Hall end of the village (St Giles Close etc) you will probably be best coming in from the south via the A34.
 
If you want to reach Church Lane or Rectory Close, you will be better coming in from the northern end via the A41.
 
If you are not visiting anyone in Wendlebury PLEASE FIND AN ALTERNATIVE ROUTE.

Flooding – 14 November

Flood levels have risen on the Wendlebury Brook as a result of the heavy rainfall and a Flood Warning has been issued.  This can be found on the flood warning information service at  https://flood-warning-information.service.gov.uk/target-area/061FWF14WendleBk

The County Emergency Planning Team has arranged for Highways to deliver more sandbags to The Lion.

It is now recommended that all villagers living near the brook should start to move their belongings upstairs if at all possible.

More information will follow.

Wendlebury road works towards Bicester Avenue – from 23 September

The Parish Council has been informed that the company Reach Active will be undertaking excavation works on Wendlebury Road near Bicester Avenue.

These works are to install new high voltage power and Thames Water infrastructure and will be done in consultation with Officers at Oxfordshire County Council to ensure the least disruption.

A southbound closure of the Wendlebury Road between Bicester Avenue and Shoulder Way is planned together with a no left turn at the Shoulder Way junction to the Vendee Drive roundabout for northbound traffic. These restrictions will be in place from 23 September until 18 October with a local diversion route in place.

To get to Bicester, villagers will need to drive all the way down the Wendlebury Road to Bicester Avenue, exit onto the A41 southbound, drive up to the Vendee Drive roundabout and double back on the northbound carriageway.

The easiest way of getting into the village will be via the southbound A41 junction nearest the village which the majority of people currently use.

We have been assured that every effort will be made to keep disruption to a minimum during these works.
