Student volunteering for GCC

We've just agreed with the University of Oxford careers service to work with their "The Student Consultancy" programme.  This means they will be lending us a student volunteer who will be undertaking research and reporting over the next few months on transport issues around sustainable travel with particular emphasis on the M40 J6 Lewknor transport links.GCC is working with Chinnor and Aston Rowant PCs to ensure their input can be added to the project, and the student team has been briefed to consider the project alongside the Oxfordshire Local Transport Plan 2011-30 which supports community led approaches to travel improvement and the improvement of cycling and walking facilities.  This is an exciting development and we're grateful for the focussed project support.
