New town signs installed

New signs have been installed at the road entrances to Charlbury.

The signs highlight Charlbury’s position in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and include pictograms for Charlbury Museum plus the accommodation and food/drink in the town. They are in green (rather than the usual white) to look less obtrusive against the town’s rural setting.

The signs also say “Walkers and cyclists welcome” to recognise Charlbury’s status as a Walkers are Welcome town; to encourage motorists to slow down for vulnerable road users; to promote active tourism; and to promote carbon-neutral, healthy forms of transport.

The sign project was carried out by Charlbury Town Council and Oxfordshire County Council with support from the Cotswold Conservation Board (the AONB’s governing body).
