Getting there

Bus from Oxford station — The ground is out of town; several city buses run past the retail park near the stadium.
Oxford station — 40 minutes' walk isn't realistic for most — the bus or a taxi is the standard approach.
Driving — M40 J8, then A423; the retail park car parks are the easiest option.

Ground note · unverified

The Kassam Stadium is a fair distance from the historic city centre — don't assume you can combine sightseeing and the match without transport.

Ground note · unverified

Oxford's city-centre roads have heavy restrictions; park-and-ride is often the sensible driving option for the city itself.
