Ratings and Reviews

Easy & no hassles.

Will definitely use this again next time I visit Oxford.

Developer Response ,

That's great to hear, thank you for the kind review!

Don’t use if you are at LHR.

Do not use this app if you are traveling from LHR. It listed the only available route from LHR to Oxford as departing from a bus stop outside of the airport. After spending a long time finding the bus stop (which is basically in an industrial park) we figured we would wait and see if the bus came. While the bus did come, it sped right past us, even though we were waiting at the stop this app told us it would stop at. We sprinted after the bus and waived it down but it would not stop. This app will lead you astray, stranded, and with blisters from walking around so long just looking for information. If you are coming from LHR- Go to the central bus station at the airport and get on a bus there instead. Don’t follow this app unless you want to waste 2 hours and £150 on an Uber.
Thank you for the review, however, this does not sound right. All bus stops within Heathrow Airport are listed on the app. If you could email some specific information regarding the journey planner search to [email protected], we will look into this for you.

Do not use for travel from the airport!

This use of this app lead to a disastrous experience trying to get from Heathrow to Oxford. The only option it showed for pick up was several miles from the airport, near a business parking lot. We took an airport shuttle there, only to learn the bus stop was a decent walk away, through a weird industrial park. After finally finding our bus stop, the bus drove right by and didn’t stop! We tried to flag it down with no luck. At that point we were stranded several miles away from the airport and out the 5 pounds I paid for a day pass. Overall, using this app wasted 2 hours and resulted in a $140 Uber. Just go to the bus station at the airport and ignore the app completely.

thames travel 98

BUS services across some parts of the county will stop running from January 2.

In November, Oxfordshire County Council announced that many bus routes would be axed to 'secure services' after the 'unprecedented challenges' the pandemic caused.

The cuts are blamed on lower passenger numbers than usual, a reduction in government funding, and a national shortage of driving staff. 

The reduction in services will affect both Stagecoach and Oxford Bus Company Services.

Here is a full list of the bus cuts that will come into place from Sunday:

  • Kidlington 2, 2A, 2B: Stagecoach will be running a new S9 route and timetable  from 2nd January 2022. Journeys will run every 20 minutes on Mondays to Saturdays, every 30 minutes in the evenings, and every 30 minutes on Sundays. The new route will cover Denchworth Road, Brereton Drive, Cane Lane, Mably Way, Grove Way, Grove Street, Seesen Way, Wallingford Street to Market Place. Stagecoach will not be operating the service S8 or 34.
  • Oxford Parkway service 7: Route 7 will be serving Oxford Parkway Station in both directions between Woodstock and Oxford. There will be minor changes to the timetable.
  • Rose Hill, Greater Leys, Minchery Farm:  As part of the consultation with Oxfordshire County Council, Stagecoach will not be operating any journeys on the 3/ 3A , 12 or 16/16A in Rose Hill, Greater Leys or Minchery Farm.
  • Wantage: Stagecoach will be running a new S9 route and timetable  from 2nd January 2022. Journeys will run every 20 minutes on Mondays to Saturdays, every 30 minutes in the evenings, and every 30 minutes on Sundays. The new route will cover Denchworth Road, Brereton Drive, Cane Lane, Denchworth Road, Mably Way, Grove Way, Grove Street, Seesen Way, Wallingford Street to Market Place. Stagecoach will not be operating the service S8 or 34. For journeys between Wantage and Abingdon please refer to Oxford Bus Company web page.
  • Services 3 and 3A: Stagecoach services 3 and 3A will cease to operate and Stagecoach will no longer serve the Iffley Road, Rose Hill or Littlemore. Oxford Bus Company will be providing an increased timetable on the city3 (every 15 minutes) and city3A (every 30 minutes). Thames Travel River Rapids services X39 and X40 will also continue to serve the Iffley Road (every 30 minutes). Between them, these services will ensure that an appropriate level of service continues to be offered on the Iffley Road corridor and for Rose Hill, Littlemore and Sandford, with an improved evening service for Littlemore and Sandford between services city3A and X40. City3A will see its route amended, to serve a greater proportion of Greater Leys due to the withdrawal of Stagecoach service 12. The section of the city3A route between the Oxford City Centre and Oxford Rail Station will be withdrawn.
  • Service city5A: Stagecoach services 12 and 16 will cease to operate. A new city5A service operated by Oxford Bus Company will commence replacing elements of these services and will operate every 30 minutes on Mondays to Saturdays, and every 60 minutes on Sundays between Minchery Farm, Cowley Centre, Cowley Road and Oxford City Centre. Florence Park is covered by the revised Oxford Bus Company city20 service on a more limited basis and Donnington Bridge Road is served by the Thames Travel service ST1.
  • Services X1 and X32: Stagecoach service S8 will cease to operate. A new Thames Travel service X1 will be introduced, connecting Wantage , East Hanney, Marcham, Abingdon and Oxford, with most journeys extending to Headington to provide connections between the Oxford City Centre and the Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre (mainly at off-peak times). The service will also provide direct connections to Harwell Campus for residents of Grove and East Hanney as the X1 will interwork with the X32 service on arrival in Wantage, which will be retimed as a result.
  • Service 34: Stagecoach service 34 will cease to operate. A new Thames Travel service 34 will be introduced, providing Monday to Friday peak-time commuter journeys between Abingdon and Harwell Campus.
  • Services 91 and 92: Whites Coaches’ Didcot town services 91, 92 and 93 will cease to operate. New Thames Travel services 91 and 92 will be introduced to provide a replacement for the majority of the withdrawn services on Mondays to Fridays daytimes. The route will be amended to provide connections to Southmead Industrial Estate and to provide an improved service for residents of the Sandringham Road area.
  • Services X36 and 38: Thames Travel service X36 will be extended to serve Willowbrook Park and Southmead Industrial Estate in Didcot, and to serve the Charlton area of Wantage at off-peak times. As a result, Thames Travel service 38 will cease to operate.
  • Service 97: Following the long-awaited completion of the bus gate at Great Western Park south, a new Thames Travel service 97 will commence operation, providing connections from Great Western Park South and the Park Road area to Didcot town centre and Didcot Parkway.
  • Services 33, 98, 99A/99C: Thames Travel services 33, 98 and 99A/99C will be retimed to improve reliability and to ensure improved spacing of journeys between Didcot Parkway and Milton Park following the changes to the X36 and X32 services.
  • Services 11 and River Rapids X39/X40: Thames Travel River Rapids services X39/X40, and service 11 will transfer to be operated by the Oxford Bus Company. Service 11 will see an additional journey to Watlington added to the timetable as a result of this change, while the timetables for the X39 and X40 services will continue unchanged.
  • Service city6: The Oxford Bus Company city6 service will be enhanced to operate every 15 minutes on Mondays to Saturdays. The route in Wolvercote village will be amended to no longer serve Home Close and Clifford Place, with services now terminating in Baynhams Drive in the new Wolvercote Mill development.
  • Service city2: The Oxford Bus Company city2 service will cease to operate and thus we will no longer serve the Banbury Road and Kidlington. Stagecoach will be continuing to operate their service 2 between Kidlington and Oxford and will be introducing a revised timetable on this corridor.
  • Service park&ride500: The Oxford Bus Company park&ride500 service from Oxford Parkway will cease to operate. Stagecoach will be amending the route of their service 7 to serve the Oxford Parkway Park&Ride car park. In addition, frequent services from Oxford Parkway will continue to operate to both Kidlington and Oxford. Any Oxford Bus Company customers on the city2 and park&ride500 who hold tickets with ongoing validity after 2nd January 2022 are advised to contact us via [email protected], by phone at 01865 785400 or at our travel shop at Gloucester Green coach station, to request a refund.
