Three places in the country answer to the name Redbridge, and this one belongs to Oxford: the far end of Abingdon Road where Kennington Roundabout takes over and the A423 Southern By-pass Road runs on to Hinksey Hill Interchange. Damage here usually comes off a roundabout approach, or from a kerb caught turning into the park and ride. Leave the car where it is parked, read out the sidewall numbers, and the right tyre leaves Brent Cross aboard the van.

Tyre work in Redbridge.
Most of what happens at Redbridge is a straight replacement: a tyre ordered in the size already on the car, carried out and fitted exactly where it stopped, with the wheel balanced before it returns. Tread punctures get taken off the rim and inspected from the inside first, because a repair only counts if it meets BS AU 159 and sits where that standard allows. Sidewall damage does not qualify. A nut that has outlived its key is drawn off the wheel and a new set put on. The line is answered around the clock.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
A private drive is still the easiest answer, and a good share of Redbridge jobs finish on one. Failing that, the park and ride gives level tarmac and room to swing a bar, which is what a seized wheel nut really needs. An estate yard at Nuffield Trade and Industrial Park works for a van, provided the site expects one at its gate. A grass verge is not a working surface at all, whatever the road, and Weirs Lane is no exception.
Calls come from the houses along Abingdon Road, from Cold Harbour and the turnings towards South Hinksey and Kennington, and from working vehicles at Nuffield Trade and Industrial Park and Sandford Lane Industrial Estate. Redbridge Park and Ride is the one genuinely public place to stand a car around here, and its bays give a jack room and a wheel somewhere clean to land, so pull in away from the bus stands and keep the ticket running. Templars Shopping Park bays belong to the operator, so ask at the desk before a van pulls alongside. What cannot happen is a wheel change on the A423 carriageway or on the circulating lanes of Kennington Roundabout and Heyford Hill Roundabout. Get the car onto Abingdon Road or Weirs Lane first, and if the car is immovable and the spot feels unsafe, 999 comes before anything else.

Nights at Redbridge belong to shift traffic: someone coming off the bypass onto Abingdon Road with a tyre going soft, or a driver back at the park and ride after the last bus in, finding a flat by torchlight. Ring or WhatsApp 07473 720871 at any point in the night, and the figure for that visit is agreed before you hang up.
