Which operator runs each M40 service area?

The M40 has four service areas, run by three operators. Beaconsfield (J2) is Extra MSA, Oxford (J8A) and Warwick are Welcome Break, and Cherwell Valley (J10) is Moto. Each operator sets its own food line-up, so the brands change from stop to stop.

Three operators run the M40's four service areas, and the food line-up follows the operator. Extra MSA runs Beaconsfield at Junction 2, with Starbucks, McDonald's and a Shell forecourt. Welcome Break runs Oxford at Junction 8A, with Pret and Waitrose, and Warwick, with Starbucks, KFC and a BP forecourt. Moto runs Cherwell Valley at Junction 10, with Costa, KFC and an Esso forecourt. The table below lines them up by operator and charging network.

HGV parking and showers on the M40

Three of the four M40 service areas have HGV parking in our data: Beaconsfield (J2), Oxford (J8A) and Warwick. Cherwell Valley (J10) does not. Showers run the other way, with Oxford, Warwick and Cherwell Valley on the list and Beaconsfield off it. The M40 has no dedicated truckstop, so the service areas are the overnight option.

The M40 is a passenger-led corridor with no standalone truckstop, so HGV drivers rely on the service areas. Three of the four have HGV parking in our data: Beaconsfield (J2), Oxford (J8A) and Warwick. Cherwell Valley (J10) does not. Oxford, Warwick and Cherwell Valley have driver showers; Beaconsfield does not. Beaconsfield, Oxford and Cherwell Valley are open 24 hours. Bay counts, booking rules and overnight rates are not in our data, so check with the operator. Use the HGV filter to see only truck-friendly stops on your route.
