Welcome
Thank you for your interest in joining us at Transport for Greater Manchester. This is an exciting time to be part of our journey; we are shaping a transport system for the future, one that connects people and places, unlocks opportunities for employment, education, leisure and culture, and drives sustainable economic growth across our city region.
Our ambition is bold, from growing and expanding our Bee Network, increasing passenger numbers across bus and tram, and integrating train services within our network in the next 12-months, to developing new infrastructure and achieving carbon neutrality by 2038. We are investing in sustainable and active travel options that empower communities to rethink how they move, and in delivering a fully integrated transport system we are revolutionising how people access public transport, making it easier, greener and more inclusive for everyone. We want to create a network that works for people and businesses, supporting the delivery of the Greater Manchester Strategy and transforming everyday journeys.
Together, we can build a transport system that Greater Manchester can be proud of. If you are passionate about transport, innovation and sustainability – and you want to make a real difference in one of the most dynamic city regions – then we would love to hear from you!
