Electric Road right of way update: Campaigners are now looking for people aged 55+ who used the Bulstake Path or the Electric Road before 2000, (ideally before 1980), even if they no longer live in Oxford, in order to establish evidence of regular use of the paths for at least 20 years before 2000.
Campaigners are seeking statements from anyone who has walked Electric Road, the path from Osney Mead to South Hinksey. The path is not yet formally a public right of way, meaning access could be withdrawn at any time; the campaign aims to apply for it to become one.
