What does Transport for Greater Manchester do?

Transport for Greater Manchester is the new name for the organisation responsible for implementing local transport policy.

Transport for Greater Manchester is the delivery arm for the elected body, responsible for investing your money in improving transport services and facilities, supporting the largest regional economy outside London.

It is our job to promote the choices you have to make your journey, from public transport to walking to cycling. We will provide you with the information - and the facilities - you need so you can make the decisions that best suit you. Visit www.tfgm.com for more details.

What’s Manchester like?

Manchester has the biggest economy in the UK outside London and is now widely regarded as the country’s second city.

The city has undergone a renaissance in recent years thanks to massive regeneration initiatives and its profile and reputation for delivering major international events has been enhanced by the success of the 2002 Commonwealth Games and European football cup finals.

Salford’s MediaCity:UK will allow Greater Manchester to rival the world’s other new media cities with new media and creative industries offering employment opportunities to 15,500 people. It’s the future home of many of the BBC operations and some of Greater Manchester’s most original buildings, including The Lowry arts centre and the Imperial War Museum North.

Add this to Manchester’s legendary leisure facilities – including some of the best shopping and sporting experiences in the country – and there’s never been a better time to join us.
