How clean are the rivers in Oxford?

Claire Robertson, Oxford Rivers Project Officer for Thames 21, gave a talk at the OIRA Annual Meeting on 24 April about river water quality on the Thames. You can download her PowerPoint slides here with a lot of useful links and information:

Claire’s slides

Thames21 and research institute UKCEH have also launched the Oxford Rivers Portal: https://oxfordrivers.ceh.ac.uk/portal. 

On a single map, you can discover:

  • the current river level
  • flood alerts
  • whether there has been a recent sewage spill
  • the most recent bacteria water level at Port Meadow (between 15 May and 30 September) 
  • other local information
