The Night-Time Safety Survey aims to explore what makes people feel unsafe when walking after dark and to identify ways we can improve safety across West Oxfordshire.

The survey is quick and easy to complete, and the feedback we receive will help shape efforts to create safer and more welcoming spaces for everyone.

We’re particularly keen to hear views on:

• Improvements needed around bus stops and along the routes to and from them.
• How safe people feel when travelling on foot after dark.

The survey can be completed online at: https://yourvoice.westoxon.gov.uk/en-GB/projects/night-safety
