Number of roadworks 2019-2021
Dear Oxford City Council,
Under the Freedom of Information Act, I would like to request the number of street works and road works carried out by the council for both the 2019/20 and 2020/21 financial years.
If possible, I would also like to know the longest-running works that took place in both of these periods.
Yours faithfully,
Jamie Dixon
Dear Mr Dixon,
Oxford City Council – Reference:10410
Thank you for your email below. Your request was received on 15th September 2021 and you will be sent a response within 20 working days (of receipt) in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act 2000/ Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (EIR), subject to the information not being exempt or containing reference to a third party.
The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) recognises the unprecedented challenges all are facing during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
In particular they understand that resources, whether they are finances or people, may be diverted away from usual compliance or information rights work. Whilst the ICO can’t extend statutory timescales, they will not be penalising public authorities for prioritising other areas or adapting their usual approach during this extraordinary period.
Therefore while the Council will make every effort to comply with the Statutory Requirements you may experience understandable delays when making information rights requests during the pandemic.
Yours sincerely
Joyce Fagan
Information Governance Requests Officer

Dear Mr Dixon,
Oxford City Council – Reference:10410
Thank you for your email dated 15th September 2021. Unfortunately the
Council does not hold the information you require. I recommend you
re-direct your enquiry to Oxfordshire County Council who are responsible
for Road and Street Works Services in the city, via the following link,
as I believe they will be better placed to answer your request.
