Rethink Travel - how you can help keep everyone safe

The health and safety of both customers and staff is a number one priority for Merseytravel. That’s why we are continuing to follow national Government advice and we’re working closely with rail, bus and other transport operators to provide services as safely as possible

New restrictions have just been announced by the Government. From Tuesday 22 Sept please use public transport for essential journeys only such as travelling to work or school. This could also include for necessary shopping, access to medical appointments and for caring responsibilities.

This means you should only use public transport essential purposes such as travelling to school or work.

So, we're asking everyone to rethink how they travel and consider when and by what means you travel.

Continue to walk or cycle where possible.

If you do need to use public transport then follow our important journey planning advice including planning ahead and pay by contactless or use pre-paid tickets if you can.

Remember don’t forget to wear a face covering, unless you are exempt. They are still mandatory on public transport and at all enclosed areas of transport hubs including all rail stations, ferry terminals and Merseytravel Centres.

You can read the Government information and check out our Face Covering FAQs to find out more including how to make your own face coverings at home and whether you are exempt due to a medical condition.
