If the park and ride services into Oxford were free, would you consider taking the bus? 

Travelling in from one of Oxford's park and ride services at Redbridge, Peartree, Seacourt & Thornhill Park & Ride costs £6.80 for a combined parking day return for two adults and up to three children.

It is also possible to pay for parking and a bus fare separately, parking costing £4 for a day and bus costs varying.

All in all, for some it can be quite an expensive option. 

Readers took to Facebook to share their opinion's on whether they would be be more likely to use the service if it was free, in the wake of a discussion of council decisions to cut traffic in Oxford. 

One comment by Facebook user Ralph Wears, which got 34 likes, said: "Either the parking or the bus should be free. To charge for both puts you off using it."

One comment in support of charging for bus fares, by Sue Camble, said: "I understand why they charge for parking - it used to be free but it was taken advantage of by people parking their cars for weeks at a time when getting the bus to the London airports when going on holiday."
