Signalling problems caused 30-minute delays on First Great Western trains between Oxford and Worcester Shrub Hill yesterday.

Delays also affected London Paddington services, which had a knock-on effect on Oxford services yesterday morning.

Oxford Bus Company announced its 8.20am X90 service from Oxford to London did nor run due to ‘operational problems’ and traffic was moving slowly on the A40.

There were delays on Botley Road, pictured, on the second of Oxford University’s first set of open days.
