History
Inner Ring Road
The last link, Queensway, was reported as opened "this week" by the Banbury Guardian of 11 February 1965. Queensway was dual carriageway, as was Woodgreen Avenue but dualling to the north was shortly to be planned. Orchard Way and Ruscote Avenue provided the connection northwards to Southam Road. Note that they were not shown on the 1964 OS One inch map, although it was not a full revision.
Inner Relief Road
The road on the east side of the town, from Oxford Road to Concord Roundabout, Hennef Way, was opened in June 1991 per Banbury Guardian of 4 February 1993.
