POLICE have launched a new number for non-emergency calls today.
People in Oxford can now call 101, a new national single non-emergency number, which will replace the 0845 8 505 505 number.
Both numbers will run side by side until the end of March, but if demand for the 0845 8 505 505 number drops, police said it may be discontinued earlier.
Calls to 101 - from both landlines and mobile networks - cost 15p per call, no matter what time of day, or the length of the call.
