What’s New?

  • The first Expressway Stories video has been released. It is on YouTube and available through a link on our noexpressway.org website, under the “Our Campaign” tab in a section called “Expressway Stories”.

This 5 minute film “Expressway Stories – Otmoor”, features the artist Nick Mynheer talking about Otmoor, its influence on his work, the importance of open countryside and what could be lost if the expressway were to go ahead.

Thank you to Elsie Barker for filming and editing this for us! And a huge thank you to Nick Mynheer and Zac Shannon for taking part.
