Train travel: commuting to work

You can get a 15% discount when buying a quarterly, 6-monthly or an annual season ticket with Greater Anglia.

Before you apply

You must use your work email address to register for an account, so Greater Anglia can confirm you work at Essex County Council.

How to apply

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.

Your Smart Card

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.
