Iffley Meadows
Please note: Over the next few months, Oxfordshire County Council is working with contractor Skanska to improve the footpath and cycleway along the Thames Path adjacent to Iffley Meadows in Oxford.
Oxfordshire County Council and Skanska have worked closely with BBOWT and site owners Oxford City Council to ensure minimal disruption to this important floodplain meadow.
The work will widen the tow path and also repair damage to improve it for pedestrians and cyclists.
