Can I park at Queen’s?
There is no parking available for visiting Old Members. We recommend you travel to Queen’s via public transport. There are good coach and train links from all across the country.
There are several Park and Ride sites on the outskirts of the city centre, where you can park and then take the bus into the city, and these car parks are also geared up for longer stays of up to 72 hours. If you are approaching Oxford from the M40/London, then Thornhill Park and Ride is on the route in, and the bus from there stops right outside Queen’s.
The Park and Ride sites at Pear Tree, Redbridge and Water Eaton (near Oxford Parkway railway station) also have direct links to the city centre, but may involve a short walk to Queen’s.
Please note that the Botley Road is closed to motor traffic, including buses, for the foreseeable future due to extensive works by Network Rail. You can find information about alternative bus stops on the Oxford Bus Company website.
There’s more information on all the sites at the Oxford City Council website.
It is worth noting that travelling inside the city’s ring road presents considerable challenges at present and you should allow plenty of extra time for journeys into the city centre.
