Travelling to work by train and information on Greater Anglia train discounts.
You can get a 10% discount when buying a flexi ticket with Greater Anglia.
This ticket is a flexible solution that’s perfect if you only need to travel to work a couple of times a week at peak time, Monday to Friday.
You must use your work email address to register for an account, so Greater Anglia can confirm you work at Essex County Council.
Visit the Greater Anglia website and follow the instructions on the page, making sure you use the ‘add to quote’ button and not the ‘buy now’ button.
Once you’ve submitted your quotation request, Greater Anglia will send you an email which contains the discounted price. You can then accept and pay using the link within this email.
If it’s your first order, you will receive a new Smart Card in the post.
If you’re renewing, your ticket will be remotely added to your Smart Card. You’ll just need to activate your ticket before using your ticket for the first time.
