Plan a journey
Oldham residents can now plan trips across Greater Manchester using a single online tool that pulls together live bus and tram times, service alerts and step-free access information.
The planner covers journeys that start or finish in the borough and extends to surrounding towns, aiming to cut the need to check separate operator websites.
Alongside the route finder, the page gathers timetables, disruption warnings and a sign-up option for weekly email updates on roadworks and cancellations.
Council transport chiefs say the move is a response to passenger feedback that travel information is scattered and often out of date by the time it reaches stops.
No app download is required; the service runs in any browser and is free to use, though users must allow location access for real-time departure boards.
