"County Split: Major Reorganization Unveiled for Oxfordshire and Berkshire In a significant move, the UK government has announced plans to divide Oxfordshire and a portion of Berkshire into three separate unitary authorities.

As the details of the plan are fleshed out, residents and stakeholders will be watching closely to see how this transformation will impact their daily lives."
