BY TRAIN/BUS
The nearest station is Oxford (OXF). If you arrive at Oxford Parkway (OXP), we suggest you take a connecting train to Oxford Station which is approximately five miles from the stadium.
From Oxford Station, both the City5 and Stagecoach1 bus services run every five minutes from bus stop R2 to Sandy Lane West. The journey takes around 40 minutes and then it is a 15-minute walk to the stadium (see City 5/Stagecoach 1 Timetable).
From Oxford City Centre, the 3A runs every half hour from bus stop E1 near the Westgate shopping centre, and Oxford High Street stop T2. It takes around 35 minutes and stops at Grenoble Road on the south side of the stadium.
These services are not operated by the football club and are subject to change: please check HERE for up to date information before setting off.
Taxis will take around 20 minutes to get to the ground from Oxford station and will probably cost around £15 - £20
Arrive as early as possible to get a parking space – there is only one road into the site, so the queues can become lengthy as kick-off approaches.
Oxford United share the car park with other facilities on the complex, including a cinema and bowling alley, and there can be a wait to exit the car park after the match. Be very careful with road parking and do not park on the grass verges – you will be very likely to get a parking ticket.
There are thirteen wheelchair bays on a raised platform in the away section, all with excellent views of the pitch. The away concourse has an accessible toilet (stewards have RADAR keys), and low-level counters serving hot and cold food and drink.
There are several marked blue badge bays near to each stand on a first come, first served basis. The most convenient for away supporters is in the north-west corner, accessed through car park B1.
