In 2019, Oxfordshire County Council identified that the A423 Kennington Railway bridge needs replacing.

The proposed design for the Oxford Flood Alleviation Scheme will need to be amended to allow for the redesign and replacement of the A423 bridge. Therefore, the Environment Agency have withdrawn the Compulsory Purchase Order application for the Oxford Flood Alleviation Scheme (OFAS).

The Environment Agency will submit new applications with the necessary amendments included. Replacement of the bridge provides an opportunity to design and build the bridge and the scheme together, reducing disruption and ensuring the best use of public money.
