The site is accessible by public transport from Oxford - the bus no. 280 (towards Aylesbury) leaves Oxford from Queen's Lane (stop K2) every 30-60 minutes. The journey takes 28 minutes.
An alternative option would be to start walking in the direction of Headington (St Clement's Street, A420), and try to get a lift on the way towards the services or at least A40 (Thornhill Park and Ride or truckstop). There is a "Shell" [[petrol station]] on London Rd in Headington, so you may try asking for a lift there. Until recently, it was possible to hitch-hike right next to this petrol station. However, a recent "traffic improvement scheme" introduced a bus lane there, so it's not very convenient for people to stop there. However, there's a lot of lay-bys along the A40 out of Oxford.
To get into Oxford, have somebody drop you off at Oxford Motorway Services. Walk out of the services, turn left and you'll see a perfect lay-by a hundred metres down the road. A sign ("OX") helps immensely.
