THAME & Area Transport (External site) – including a personal transport planner. Provides bus service information for Oxfordshire and parts of Buckinghamshire. The aim of the blog is to help sustain a well-used public transport system both locally and distantly with a focus of ensuring accurate up to date information which I think will be of interest to Thame’s residents in light of the many changes that are currently taking place to services.
