By Freddie Whittaker

BUDGET proposals by Oxfordshire County Council will introduce 24-hour charges at park and rides.

The plans will also see the county's share of the council tax bill rise by the maximum 1.99 per cent.

The council will also introduce a further £15m of savings in adult social care on top of what had already been planned. 

It will cut £0.8m from its children's centres budget but has insisted none of the 44 centres will close.
