Oxfordshire residents are able to see real-time information about the air quality across the county thanks to a new website. The website, www.oxfordshire.air-quality.info , launches this week and provides hourly updates about the level of harmful pollutants in the air and historic data, allowing residents to see trends. It is the first time the information has been brought together on one easy-to-use website. The website also provides information about the health impact of poor air quality and advice about how residents can reduce their own impact on air quality. As well as being easy to use, the website has also been designed to make it as easy as possible to share the data. Throughout the site there are buttons to share the information on Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and email. The website has been developed by the Oxfordshire Air Quality Group, which consists of Oxford City Council and South Oxfordshire, Vale of the White Horse, West Oxfordshire and Cherwell District Councils. Councillor Roger Cox, Vale of White Horse District Council cabinet member for Environmental Health, said: “Tackling air quality in our district means that everyone has to work towards making a difference. Not only will residents be able to see up-to-date information on the website, but they can get advice on how they can reduce their own impact on air quality.”
