Oldham Transport Ticket Offices Hours 2026

Transport ticket offices across Greater Manchester have released their 2026 opening hours, with significant variations between locations that could catch travellers off guard. The changes affect everything from buying Metrolink season tickets to applying for concessionary travel passes, with some offices closing entirely on certain days while others maintain limited weekend hours.

The most notable change is the closure of Piccadilly's Information and Ticket Office, with services now consolidated at Shudehill-a move that's already causing headaches for passengers who must now navigate between locations. Meanwhile, Altrincham Interchange stands out as the only office open on Sundays and Bank Holidays, operating from 9.20am to 4.50pm with a lunch break between 12.40pm and 1.20pm.

Most offices follow a similar pattern of closing for lunch between 1pm and 2pm Monday to Saturday, with Saturday hours typically running from 8.30am to 4pm. Ashton-under-Lyne and Stockport Interchange both close completely on Sundays and Bank Holidays, while Wythenshawe's office operates in reverse-closed Saturdays but open Sundays from 8.30am to 4pm.

For residents needing to apply for or renew travel passes like the igo card or Our Pass, the limited hours mean careful planning is essential. The variations between locations mean a trip to one office could be wasted if you haven't checked the specific opening times first.
