:05:11. > :05:14.of those were there because of delays in this sort of care package.
:05:15. > :05:18.Not all of those would be council`funded anyway. Others were
:05:19. > :05:21.waiting for more NHS treatment. 24 people were choosing to be there
:05:22. > :05:22.because for whatever reason they didn't want to take up the options
:05:23. > :05:26.offered. Thank you very much. Motorists in Oxford are facing
:05:27. > :05:28.months of disruption as a major transformation of the
:05:29. > :05:31.road network is set to get started. A new hamburger`style roundabout is
:05:32. > :05:34.being built at Kennington, and the Hinksey Hill interchange
:05:35. > :05:36.with also undergo development. But what will these changes mean
:05:37. > :05:40.for those of us who use the roads? A familiar sight for motorists
:05:41. > :05:46.in Oxford. The south of
:05:47. > :05:49.the city often bearing the brunt. And with six months'
:05:50. > :05:52.of roadworks starting next Monday, we're being told some small pain
:05:53. > :05:55.will bring big gains. I am acutely aware
:05:56. > :06:00.of actually the inconvenience there's going to be in the next few
:06:01. > :06:04.months while we get the works done. I am confident that at the end of
:06:05. > :06:08.this period by Christmas time this year the road network around here
:06:09. > :06:12.will be much improved and we will be able to drive through here much
:06:13. > :06:16.quicker, much safer and much easier. So what will it look
:06:17. > :06:19.like once it's finished? A new carriageway for eastbound
:06:20. > :06:25.traffic will be cut through the roundabout, meaning a more
:06:26. > :06:27.direct route through the junction. For those going westbound, the
:06:28. > :06:30.roundabout will be widened providing Meanwhile, at the Hinksey Hill
:06:31. > :06:35.interchange there'll be a new "free flow" slip road from the
:06:36. > :06:38.Southern Bypass south onto the A34, removing the need for motorists to
:06:39. > :06:41.stop at the traffic lights. It'll be the third hamburger
:06:42. > :06:46.roundabout in the city with others already established at Heyford
:06:47. > :06:48.and Headington. But at a cost of ?6 million,
:06:49. > :06:53.is it worth it? I use the Headington roundabout a
:06:54. > :06:57.lot and that's worked brilliantly. I think the Heyford Hill
:06:58. > :07:02.one seems to be OK. If they solve that, it's going to
:07:03. > :07:06.improve it for a month or two They should be thinking about how
:07:07. > :07:12.do we actually stop using cars? By the time this project is finished
:07:13. > :07:15.some ten million cars will have travelled through this area
:07:16. > :07:17.of Oxford. The scheme is set to increase
:07:18. > :07:20.that capacity by some 30%. The council hope that means
:07:21. > :07:23.the network will be able to deal with the ever increasing population
:07:24. > :07:31.of the county. It's designed to stop
:07:32. > :07:34.so many people taking their children A new advice booklet has been
:07:35. > :07:38.published to help parents decide on the best treatment for
:07:39. > :07:41.their children when they get ill. More than 25,000 children went to
:07:42. > :07:44.A in Oxfordshire last year and the Oxfordshire Clinical
:07:45. > :07:58.Commissioning Group hopes the advice A high temperature, a rash or poorly
:07:59. > :08:02.tummy, symptom that is can send new parents into a spin. At the moment
:08:03. > :08:05.many worried mums and dads taking children straight to A but the NHS
:08:06. > :08:08.in Oxfordshire wants that to change. It's brought out a new booklet
:08:09. > :08:14.designed to advise parents on the best way to treat their sick or
:08:15. > :08:18.injured child. One of the main reasons the NHS produced this
:08:19. > :08:23.booklet is because last year almost 28,000 children were treated in
:08:24. > :08:29.accident and emergency. That's very expensive at a time when the NHS is
:08:30. > :08:31.trying to save money. One in seven children who end up in accident and
:08:32. > :08:36.emergency should never have been taken there in the first place.
:08:37. > :08:40.Instead, one of the booklets' architects says the doctor's surgery
:08:41. > :08:46.might be more appropriate. It was designed to really look ap show them
:08:47. > :08:49.the different services available because it can be a huge challenge
:08:50. > :08:53.for a parent to find the right service for their child at the right
:08:54. > :08:58.time. We also felt it would be useful to help educate the parents a
:08:59. > :09:02.little bit about common conditions. But what do the mums of this
:09:03. > :09:08.children's centre think of the booklet? I would have been a lot
:09:09. > :09:13.more at ease with my child if I had a book like that. This little monkey
:09:14. > :09:16.had a rash and I wasn't sure if it was heat rash or chickenpox and
:09:17. > :09:19.thankfully it was a heat rash but it was nice to have something to refer
:09:20. > :09:25.to. The book may come in useful for anxious parents but for the NHS the
:09:26. > :09:26.task of reducing numbers heading to accident and emergency is not a game
:09:27. > :09:31.they can afford to lose. It's almost 100 years

:09:41. > :09:44.Prison during a march in 1912. She was sentenced to two months
