The County Council’s public consultation on the proposed Part-Night Lighting Implementation Framework is now live on ‘Let’s Talk Oxfordshire’ Part-night lighting and street lighting policy | Let’s Talk Oxfordshire

The Consultation is running until midnight on Sunday 6^th July.

What this consultation is about

This framework is about how part-night lighting could be implemented in Oxfordshire. It is not about whether part-night lighting is right for specific areas. In September 2025, the council’s cabinet will decide whether or not to move forward with part-night lighting. If the decision is to proceed, we are proposing that towns, parishes or Oxford city wards apply for part-night lighting schemes in their areas and that a public consultation is carried out for each scheme.

About the framework

The draft part night lighting framework proposes to introduce part night lighting in Oxfordshire locations where:

• it is requested by the local town or parish council/meeting, or local governance authorities

• the part night lighting exemption criteria does not apply

• local residents have been consulted via a public consultation, as well as stakeholders like the police, night economy employers and community groups
  
• the part night lighting scheme is approved at Oxfordshire Council Council’s Delegated Decision by Cabinet Member for Transport Management
