When a Witney tyre is shredded, split or bald and you have to use the A40 today, a tyre in your size is put on the van first and fitted where you are.
Some tyres are simply finished. A blowout on the bypass that shredded the tread, a sidewall torn open by the Bridge Street roundabout kerb, a tyre run flat from Hailey down the B4022 until the rubber broke up. For a driver in Ducklington due to collect children, or a tradesperson on the Windrush industrial estate with jobs booked, waiting days for a garage appointment in Witney is not an option.
Look at one of the other tyres on the car and copy down every mark in the size, down to the load index and speed letter, as in 195/65 R15 91H. That lets the correct replacement be picked and priced before the van departs. On arrival, the new tyre is mounted, the Witney wheel balanced and torqued, and the remaining tyres inspected for tread depth, cuts and bulges, with anything worth knowing reported.
You can book burst tyre replacement in Witney or flat tyre help on the same call.
Home in Ducklington or Newland, a unit on the Windrush industrial estate, the streets off Church Green or Woolgate's surface car park. If the car is marooned on the A40, recovery to a safe side road comes before any fitting.

Emergency tyre replacement explained →Emergency tyre replacement on the Witney page
When a tyre fails on Ducklington Lane (A415), turn off, if the steering feels sound, into a residential street instead of halting on the through route. Drivers coming in on Mill Street (A4095) can pull into a quieter street off Woodgreen Hill. Ring with the road number, the nearest landmark and the car's tyre size, and a replacement in a budget, mid-range or premium band is agreed first.
A Witney replacement is right first time when the details are. Beyond the width, profile and rim, write down the load figure, the speed letter, plus XL or run-flat stamping if present. Say what brand and pattern sits on the matching wheel, since two unlike tyres on one axle can feel unsettled on the A40. The one stock question is whether the size is everyday or unusual, as some older 4x4 sizes take sourcing. Choose a spot like a Newland kerb where the van can draw up alongside.
