Blewbury Transport Services

The main bus services for Blewbury were reassigned to Heyfordian Travel on 2nd June, 2008. They are routes 94 and 95, which run between Didcot Parkway and Blewbury approximately hourly through much of the day. No buses run on Sundays or Bank Holidays. All buses stop at the Load of Mischief, and on demand elsewhere on their route.
