High Street

High Street is one of the four main streets in Oxford. It's the street you take to get to London and the eastern part of the city. It is partly open to traffic, but when you're almost to Carfax, the junction of the four main streets of Oxford, you can only follow the buses and cars. High Street leads to Magdalen Bridge, which is one of the few bridges in this city, and it's surrounded by water. The lack of access to this point of the city explains the horrendous traffic. A lot of times people go by bike or bus to avoid this. The street is known as "The High," and is bordered by major schools such as the University of Oxford, University College, Queens College, Brasenos, St Mary's.
