Full details of how volunteer/community-led highways services can be run, including useful How-To-Guides, can be found on our Oxfordshire Together page.

Services include:

• Vegetation Cut Back

We are working with many parish and town councils across the county to support them in managing and delivering different services relating to their local highways. 

Use of volunteers

Volunteers can be used to deliver many of these services. This can be done on an individual basis, for example if one person has an interest in providing a particular service or can be done by a group of volunteers overseen by a central coordinator. Training may be required to enable the individual/s to perform some tasks safely.

If you are a parish or town council contact the Volunteer Coordination Team.
