BROAD Street is set to be transformed into Broad Meadow today, a new town square which is filled with wildflowers and plants. The new outdoor space, pedestrianised temporarily for the summer, is set to be officially opened today (July 1). Susan Brown, leader of Oxford City Council, and Tom Hayes, her deputy, will officially open the new outdoors space. The city council has plans for a high quality programme of community and arts events in the space over the summer weekends, the details of which are being finalised in response to the Government’s expected announcements about the regulations which will be in effect from July 19.
