Oxford United fans will benefit from improved bus services to home games next season.
A new service, OX1, will pick up fans in Wantage, Grove, Marcham, and Abingdon, before travelling along Dunmore Road to the A34 serving a different part of Abingdon.
Rather than both OX3 buses starting in Carterton and traveling to Witney, one will now start in Burford and pick up Minster Lovell – the new OX4 route.
The OX4 will then join up with the OX3 in Witney, and both will leave slightly earlier than before.
The OX8 will now start from Chinnor before picking up in Thame, no longer pulling into Thornhill Park and Ride.
It will, however, pick up and drop off from the bus stops just outside on the A40 at Sandhills.
The club has announced the football special buses alongside Oxford Bus Company, Thames Travel, and Pulhams.
The new network will be in place for Championship home games next season.
The full list of routes is:
- OX1 Wantage Kingsgrove – Wantage Market Place – Grove – Marcham – Abingdon – North Abingdon.
- OX2 Didcot – Steventon – Drayton – Abingdon – Oxford Road Abingdon – Kassam
- OX3 Carterton – Brize Norton – Curbridge – Witney – Eynsham – Botley
- OX4 Burford – Minster Lovell – Witney – Eynsham – Botley
- OX5 Bicester
- OX7 Kidlington – Summertown – Marston – Headington – Cowley
- OX8 Chinnor – Thame – Wheatley – Sandhills (outside Thornhill only) – Risinghurst
