Potential diversion on Airline coaches to Oxford at PEAK TIME
- Affected routes:
-
the airline OXF
Due to the ongoing congestion around St.Clements at peak times, we may occasionally divert our Airline coaches via Headley Way, Marston Ferry Road and Banbury Road to Gloucester Green bus station to avoid vehicles getting caught in the area. As a result, the stops at Brookes University, St.Clements, Queens Lane and St.Aldates may be missed when operating the diverted route.
Passengers requiring to alight at any of these stops can either remain on the coach after Gloucester Green on the outbound journey or alight at Headington Shops and connect with our local services (400/city8) for onward travel.
As stated, this will only happen at peak times when the traffic conditions are exceptionally heavy.
Thank you for your understanding.
