Looking to make some new choices in 2022? Let Metro be part of your plans. 

There are several ways to incorporate Metro travel into a sustainable, healthy lifestyle. We've split it into four areas - walk, cycle, ride, relax.

Walk

From taking the stairs at a station to getting off one stop earlier, or even taking the dog for a more adventurous walk, there are plenty of ways to get those extra steps in as part of your journey.

Learn how you can increase your step count while using Metro.

Cycle

Cycle to a Metro station and lock your bike safely - some of our stations even have smart lockers! Explore Tyne and Wear over road, cycle paths and the Metro.
