NEW UPDATE 21st Feb
Newbridge
and the A415
Following a meeting with OCC Trading Standards, it appears that reports of HGVs violating the 18 tonne limit must follow the procedure below:
- Vehicle must be observed between the Weak Bridge 18 tonne MGW signs either side of the bridge
- Report must be made on 'Neighbourhood Weight Watch Incident Report' (click for PDF file) and sent to tradingstandards@oxfordshire.gov.uk
- Person reporting must be prepared to make a witness statement and appear in court if necessary
No other reports are valid and all the ones concerned residents have submitted in the past are null and void. It begs the question - why was this not made clear at the outset?
Trading Standards report that they have 10 prosecutions pending for Banbury Court on 10th March and a further 27 being processed
