Travel
Oldham has a good transport network and a wide range of public transport solutions in addition to a variety of parking options.
Car parking
There are a range of public pay and display car parks across Oldham and in the Town Centre.
Your manager should be able to direct you to where the nearest one to your service area is.
We also have a flexible car park pass which is available to all staff.
The flexible pass provides access to several car parks around the Town Centre including the Spindles car park.
Further information and the application form for the flexible pass can be accessed from your first day onwards.
Car Allowance
If you need to drive your own vehicle to fulfil the duties of your job, you may be eligible to receive a Car Allowance.
Your manager will be able to advise if you meet the criteria to receive a car allowance and if appropriate will arrange for relevant forms to be completed.
Interest free loans for annual tickets
Interest-free loans are available up to a maximum value of £1,000, which can be paid back through your salary over either ten months (for bus annual passes) or twelve months (for the Metrolink annual passes).
Further information and the application form can be accessed from your first day onwards.
