Kate Robinson commented on City Council publishes Oxford North planning application 2018-09-10 19:20:40 +0100This is an excellent analysis of the plan in terms of a joined up cycle network. Thank you Dick Wolff for scrutinising the plan for important details, such as how, in reality we can cycle safely throughout Oxfordshire. Keep up the good work.

Kate Robinson, Green Party Candidate for Headington Hill & Northway
I have lived in Headington for 14 years, and I am now bringing up my young family here. I work as a librarian in Oxfordshire and am firmly committed to public services. I volunteer at New Marston Primary School, where my children attend. Here, I help with the school library and run the Gardening Club. I have also recently become involved in the Marston Community Gardening group, where we hope to get as many residents as possible growing fruit and vegetables to eat – for free!
I passionately believe that local communities should come together to improve our local environment and work towards greater social justice – for everyone’s health and well-being. I view Green Politics as the most positive and logical way to improve our local transport, our amenities, our green spaces and our housing.
If elected for Headington Hill & Northway, I would:
- promote safer cycling and walking; especially for children, students and commuters – to reduce the traffic congestion and poor air-quality at peak times
- campaign for more regular, more environmental and cheaper buses (including the 13 and 14 routes) to encourage people to use public transport
- work with the Northway Community Centre to organise activities for all our residents, including Youth Groups, Sports, Health and Wellbeing, Edible Gardening, Swap Shops and Skill-Sharing, such as bike workshops.
I will work hard for you and the values of the Green Party to create a brighter future for the next generation.
