The Safety Bus scheme is run jointly by Oxford Brookes Students’ Union and OUSU. It was set up to provide a safe means of
transport late at night. The OUSU Vice-President (Women) is responsible for the OUSU side of the partnership.
How to use the safety bus
To use
the service simply ring 07714 445050 between 9 p.m.–3 a.m.
Monday to Saturdays and 9 p.m.–1 a.m. on Sundays. The bus
will pick you up and deliver you to any destination within the
ring road all for only £1 donation per trip. The scheme is
available to OBSU and OUSU members. Priority will always be given to
vulnerable people and individuals as the emphasis for the scheme is
on safety. Please be aware that the bus depends on volunteers and so is not able to run on nights when volunteers are not available to help out. We advice that you take the phone number of a taxi company with you for such an eventuality.
