Oxford to introduce £5 driver congestion charge

Oxfordshire County Council will enforce the charge for car drivers to enter six parts of the centre from November.

The scheme is designed to reduce congestion and delays to buses, partly caused by the temporary closure of Botley Road since April 2023 because of a Network Rail project to expand the city's railway station. It will apply to car drivers only. All other vehicles will not be required to pay a charge and do not need a permit.
