Who We Are

Merseytravel - Promoting the interests of the travelling publicMerseytravel - Promoting the interests of the travelling public.

Merseytravel works to promote the interests of Merseyside's travelling public while providing value for money for its local tax payers.

The public sector body co-ordinates public transport through partnership initiatives, with the aim of delivering a fully integrated and environmentally friendly public transport network.

Merseytravel is controlled by democratically elected councillors from the five local authorities, who set the policies for officers to deliver.

Merseytravel is committed to playing a major role in the continued regeneration of Merseyside - economically and socially.

This means incorporating high quality public transport as an integral feature of commercial developments such as the Joblink and Dial-a-Link bus services, helping people get to jobs and training.

Merseytravel provides bus services linking communities with hospitals, schools and other vital social outlets at times when bus companies find it unprofitable. This is a major aspect of Merseytravel's work.
