If the funded Emergency Active Travel scheme is delivered in Witney it will join #NCN57 to @A40Oxford cycleway with a protected East-West route. Now this is probably too much excitement already, but in my mind that is the best ever opportunity for removal of these barriers!! 
And ...upgrading of the 'dirt track' which links ~1,100 residents living in Madley Park with key amenities in Witney Town Centre - currently requires wellies and a head torch after dark...
And.. creation of a 'quiet' route with 20mph speed limit along Church Lane with measures to stop vehicles obstructing the bend by Oxlease Play Area, a major problem for mobility scooter and wheelchair users here 
And.. signage to prevent vehicles trying to head across Langel Common!
And... even better - once across Langel Common people on foot and bike will no longer be churned out at a barrier and awkwardly have to hop on the road in front of a roundabout.
