‘Survival mode’ for mum stuck in Oxford car park for three hours

The mum of two, the eldest of which is six, said the family had parked at the Westgate’s multi storey site, and headed back to their car at around 15:30 BST to make it home for “baby bedtime”.

At this point, she described seeing “cars backed up along every channel of the car park” and water being handed out by Westgate staff, according to the Local Democracy Reporting Service.

Strange said she was “worried” about the impact of the situation on her young children, and that it felt like “suddenly going into a little bit of survival mode”.

After three hours in the car park, the family managed to exit – with Strange placing the fault for the delays on the new traffic filters.

“It’s just going to kill the city and put everybody off,” she said.

Strange added that she had now cancelled upcoming plans at the Westgate, and that had no plans to return to Oxford any time soon.
