A number of bus services in Oxford and the wider county could be cut if further Government funding is not secured. 

Oxford Bus Company and Thames Travel warned if funding support was not extended in April, it would have to reduce its network by between 20 and 30 per cent.

This would include the removal of park & ride services into the centre of Oxford, and some city and rural bus services. 

Funding runs out on April 5 and the Government has not yet confirmed if further support will be provided. Currently operators must provide 35 days’ notice to alter or withdraw services, meaning they must serve notice on plans to make any changes on February 25.
