Day return bus travel from park and ride sites in Oxford is free until 31 March 2026.

This offer is being run by Oxfordshire County Council alongside their temporary congestion charge.

In summary:

  • You must pay for parking to get free travel - show your parking ticket (or RingGo session) to the bus driver when you board
  • Free travel is for up to two adults and three children (standard bus operator fares apply to additional travellers)
  • If you don't pay for parking (e.g. Blue Badge holders) the cheapest parking ticket costs less than the standard fare
