West Oxfordshire District Council has refused to back a new campaign to scrap tolls on the Swinford Toll Bridge.

At a full council meeting yesterday, councillors rejected a motion to lobby the county council and MP David Cameron to get rid of the 5p toll charge.

Council leader Barry Norton put forward an amended motion to continue to work with the county council to ease congestion at the bridge.
