Car Parking 'add-on'
The car parking ‘add-on’ enables you to park as many times as you like at any of Oxford’s five Park&Ride sites for the duration of your season bus ticket. The parking add-on can be purchased whenever you buy a 4-week, 13-week or 52-week cityzone or Oxford SmartZone period ticket on the key smartcard from www.oxfordkey.co.uk. Your vehicle registration will be entered at the time of purchase and will then be added automatically to Oxford City Council's database so the system knows you have paid.
More information on the range of cityzone tickets and how to purchase them can be found here.
