Roadworks Wanbourne Lane and Ridgeway Monday 23rd & Tuesday 24th October
Access will be maintained but there will be delays:
The roadworks to be conducted in Nettlebed are Micro-Asphalt resurfacing. Micro is a surface treatment which is laid over an existing carriageway to reseal and protect.
Access for both roads will be maintained at all times, however due to the size of machinery utilised and a minimal curing time there may be a short delay to ensure the new surfacing is not comprised and the safety of both the workforce and the general public is maintained. Once on site the surfacing crew will liaise with anyone requiring access to ensure disruption is kept to a minimum. It may be beneficial for the surgery to advice their clients to allow a little extra time when attending an appointment.
Currently the work is scheduled for Monday 23rd & Tuesday 24th October, however this is subject to change as this type of treatment is weather susceptible so...

I have responded to the S Oxon plan on a couple of occasions purely from the perspective of a village doctor but also as one of the SE locality doctors which includes the 10 GP practices in SE Oxon.
The population rise expected due to housing expansion in SE Oxon is 17,050 homes to be built between 2016 and 2033, a population rise of 47,000 people.
This is the equivalent of 7 new GP surgeries in SE Oxon (average surgeries have approx. 7000 patients).
Due to a lack of national workforce planning we find ourselves in a position where very few doctors are choosing to become GP partners. There is an expected shortfall of 11.2 GPs in the locality in the next 4 years. More than 50% of qualifying GPs do locum work ie they are not attached to any one surgery. Approx 25% become salaried GPs and only about 25% become GP partners - these are...
