Travel advice for businesses

GETTING TO AND FROM WORK

Transport networks will be incredibly busy, particularly at peak commuter and various competition times. Your staff could be affected and even delayed on certain days. If you understand how your staff get to work, you could use this information to plan ahead and minimise disruption to your workplace. There are many different ways of working you could adopt, make your plan to see what options might be available.

STAFF BUSINESS TRAVEL

Travel between some locations during the day, particularly close to Games venues, will be very difficult. There are a few things you can do to avoid being late for important meetings and keep your business running smoothly.

CUSTOMERS AND VISITORS

It may be much harder for customers and visitors to get to your premises at usual times. Your plan could help you consider a range of alternatives to ensure your customers and visitors can still receive a good service from you.

DELIVERIES AND COLLECTIONS

Parking and road restrictions around, and on routes to, Games venues may affect deliveries and collections at your premises during usual times, and at certain times deliveries may not be possible at all. See how you can minimise these challenges and keep your business running smoothly.
