Your story on the new Link Road between Didcot and Abingdon plan is indeed welcome. I have been advocating this for some time. But if it just links the Perimeter Road to the A415 it will be deficient.

It also needs a Clifton Hampden bypass link to the road on to the Golden Balls junction, on the A4074, to provide an alternative route to Oxford, avoiding the A34. We need many improvements in Didcot, but we also need to be able to get in and out when we have to.
