Public Transport

Would you like time to relax, read or talk to friends?

Public transport is a great opportunity to unwind after your day at work.
For some people, taking the bus or train could be cheaper than running a car – especially if you purchase season tickets or your employer can provide interest-free loans for an annual pass.
You don’t need to plan your route.
Avoid the stress of travelling on busy roads.
Public transport is an effective means to reduce the number of vehicles on the road and reduce pollution levels.
Durham City is now served by 3 Park and Ride sites allowing commuters to easily access the city centre and have unlimited travel with one ticket.
Use the train for business travel and relax on the journey.
The walk to and from the bus stop contributes to your recommended daily amount of exercise.
With support from your employer you may be able to stagger the daily commute through either flexible working hours or allowing working whilst on the train.
