SHORT-STAY parking charges at two East Oxford car parks are to rise.

Members of Oxford City Council's east area committee agreed to raise the charge for an hour's parking at St Clement's car park from 80p to 90p.

And charges at Union Street car park for one to two hours will rise from 70p to 90p - with one hour's parking remaining the same at 60p. The council hopes to raise over £12,000 in additional income.
