Sir – I don’t normally agree with the council introducing car parking charges, but on this occasion, the new charges at Thornhill park-and-ride for London commuters is long overdue.
It is well known that by about 8am Thornhill is usually full with London commuters, resulting in those wishing to park and travel into Oxford unable to get a space.
I don’t think Chris Shipton (Letters, October 25) has any grounds to complain about being charged £3 a day, as this is still far cheaper than using other means of transport into London.
He and all the other London commuters, should count themselves lucky that they’ve had the benefit of free parking for so long.
Clare Richardson, Headington
