Transport
Transport is central to Greater Manchester’s plan to make the city-region one of the best places in the world to grow up, get on and grow old.
Having an integrated public transport network and supporting walking and cycling will enable our residents to lead fulfilling and productive lives, reduce inequality and isolation and make Greater Manchester cleaner, green and healthier. It will also help build thriving neighbours, communities and town centres where people want to live, work and study.
Our road and rail networks place Greater Manchester at the heart of the UK and our city-region will place a central role in rebalancing the national economy. Manchester Airport provides an international link to passenger and freight networks.
Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) is the public body responsible for co-ordinating transport services throughout Greater Manchester.
