Default Commuting from London to Oxford for Work

OK. Oxford railway station is about 10 minutes' walk into the city centre
(taking the centre to be Carfax crossroads). If his office is in the centre,
there are buses from the station or from the bus stops nearby near the Jam
Factory / Said Business School. There may also be buses from here to other
parts of Oxford; failing that it may be necessary to change at Gloucester
Green bus station off George Street.


Actually, if he takes the frequent No.5 bus from the station, the
easiest place to change to a northbound bus is below the castle, where
you can cross the road to the other stop. Gloucester Green is not a
lot of use. The 14 bus to JRH also goes up the Banbury Road, but is
less frequent.

Have a look at http://www.oxfordbus.co.uk/ for details of services,
and fare deals. A Freedom ticket will almost certainly be worth
having.
