If someone obstructs a highway without lawful authority or excuse, they are committing an offence. Oxfordshire County Council, as the Highway Authority, has the legal power to enforce the removal of such obstructions.

To report an obstruction on a road or pavement, visit the Oxfordshire County Council website.
