Service diversion - city4

Owing to works taking place in Bath Street, the city4 service will be temporarily diverted from Monday 09th August 2010 for approximately 2 weeks.

Abingdon Bound services will divert from its usual route at the junction of Faringdon Road and Spring Road and operate via Spring Road, Ock Street and Stratton Way, where the service will terminate.

Oxford Bound services will operate from Stratton Way to Stert Street, then via High Street, Ock Street, Spring Road and Faringdon Road, where normal route will resume towards Oxford.

As a result of the diversion, the city4 service will leave Stratton Way stop A3 5 minutes earlier than time advertised.

  • the city 4 evening and Sunday service between Cumnor and Abingdon will operate via the standard daytime route of Dalton Barracks, Shippon and Faringdon Road from Sunday 6 June 2010;
  • airline services will return to the higher level of service from Sunday 13 June 2010 until Saturday 2 October 2010.

Headington Roadworks - Bus Stop temporarily relocated

From Monday 10th May, Park & Ride 400 services heading towards Thornhill will be unable to use the Headington stop (just beyond Osler Road junction, outside Starbuck’s). All Park & Ride services towards Thornhill will therefore observe the city 8/9 stop (outside Allen & Harris).
