REGARDING the Northern Gateway and transport implications, while people decide whether we should support St John’s College or the homeless people of Oxford, I want to ask if an impact assessment has been done on how either type of development will affect public transport ?
We are reaching the maximum number of buses that can carry people through the centre of Oxford and please remember that anyone who takes up a new high-tech job, as St John’s envisages, would need housing too.
This would reduce even more the number of housing units for those in housing need.
