Abandoned Cars 2023

Charlotte made this Freedom of Information request to Oxford City Council This request has been closed to new correspondence. Contact us if you think it should be reopened.

The request was partially successful.

Dear Oxford City Council,

I am conducting research in relation to the number of cars that are abandoned per year, and wondered if you hold the following data please:

The number of vehicles reported as abandoned within your area, broken down by year across the last 5 years (from Jan 2018-Jan 2023). If possible, please also include the make and model and registration year of any of these abandoned vehicles.

Please provide this as an Excel spreadsheet (or similar format).

If any element of this request exceeds the FOI cost/time limits, please could you refine the request, and process any other available data.

Please let me know if you would like further information or clarification on this request. Thank you for your help in this enquiry.

Yours faithfully,

Charlotte Brown
