In November this year, Oxfordshire County Council will be bringing in six traffic filters around Oxford. Whatever your views of the traffic filters, having clear information and being able to ask questions is helpful. If you drive into Oxford, occasionally or regularly, you need to understand how they work.

This event focuses on accurate information and will answer common queries, such as: why are these filters being introduced? What do the passes mean in practice and how will I be able to apply? Which groups have exemptions? - and lots more.

The focus will be on practicality, with a big map, and lots of time for questions. You'll leave knowing more about how the filters will work, understanding what they might mean for the kinds of journeys you make, and having a sense of some choices you'll have when they're in.

This presentation will be given by Zuhura Plummer of Oxfordshire Liveable Streets, who are in favour of the measures, but are focusing on communicating the plans so people understand what is happening and why. This event is free and open to anyone in Wantage and Grove, and surrounding areas.

Previous attendees have said: ‘"I’m still very sceptical about whether this will work, but before I was really worried about it, but now I'm less worried" and "I knew something was coming but I didn't know what, but now I understand, and I feel like I have a few choices"
