Transition By Design were commissioned to undertake community engagement as part of the Cowley Branch Line project to create a Community Needs Brief which, should the delivery phase be funded, would inform the proposed stations’ access arrangements and public realm. The proposed new stations would be in Blackbird Leys and Littlemore. A wide range of local residents and those who travel to the area were consulted through face to face engagements, both in public ‘pop up’ stalls and more focussed workshop sessions. Participants were asked specifically about travel to the new stations and how access arrangements could link the railway to surrounding neighbourhhoods effectively. We will be running some larger engagement events where we will share the sketch designs from Network Rail and 5th Studio later this summer.
