Local air quality management

We monitor air quality and will act if we find any problems. Vehicle emissions in our historic towns and villages tend to be the cause of the biggest problems in a rural area like ours.

Live local air quality information can be found on the Oxonair website.

Taking action in local areas

To address the air quality issues in our district, we have published an air quality action plan with Vale of White Horse District Council that gives details on how air quality issues can be tackled by working with our Air Quality Partners to make a difference.

Find out more about our Turn It Off campaign which aims to improve air quality through cleaner driving.

If you need more information or advice about an air quality issue, please get in touch with our Environmental Protection Team using the details below.
