The information requested is not held.

There is a bus service supporting the local area which can be used by both staff and visitors, however, the majority arrive by private car or taxi. The nearest train station to the prison is Bicester which is approximately 15-20 minutes away by taxi. The prison has the facility to use its own transport to do pick-ups, however, demand for this is currently low.
