A SPECIAL shuttle bus is being put on for Truck Festival this weekend.

Thames Travel is running the service, which includes a new ‘weekend ticket’.

The company have introduced the £10 option for the sell-out small music festival – which begins today near Didcot – for those making multiple trips to the event.

The shuttle service, which runs from Didcot Parkway Station and stops at Rowstock Corner and Milton Heights Turn, will operate throughout the festival.

The initiative follows traffic chaos two years ago.

In 2017, Steventon's Hill Farm venue saw gridlocked roads and pedestrian queues of up to four hours to get into the site.

Last year the festival introduce Thursday entry to help alleviate the traffic issues, which came in the same year that the festival was hit terrible weather conditions.
