We are residents of West and South Oxford with a vision for improved flood alleviation that is effective, considers cost, and the impact on our beautiful local environment. We have a plan that takes the best parts of the Environment Agency’s proposals, and makes improvements to the most environmentally destructive parts. We can, and must, alleviate prevent floods, while also preserving the beauty and ecology of this area.
