We have invested a great deal in transport on Cobalt, with a dedicated Travel Co-Ordinator on-site able to provide personal travel plans for all Cobalt members and a regularly updated Travel Section on the Cobalt website with information on all possible modes of transport to and from Cobalt Business Park. From the Cobalt Clipper 309 Service running between Blyth and Newcastle, Car Sharing and Taxi Share schemes to designated off-road cycle routes that connect up to the Waggonways Cycle Ways your journey to work should be as easy and carefree as is possible. Cobalt members can also borrow one of ten brand new bicycles to get around the park, whether for a leisurely cycle during a lunch hour or to commute between buildings on the ever expanding Cobalt site.

Walking is one of the healthiest transport options promoting cardiovascular fitness and a general sense of
well being. It is also the cheapest form of transport and creates no pollution,therefore the more steps you
take while leaving the car at home, the smaller your carbon footprint!
If your journey is within a 3 mile radius of Cobalt Business Park then walking truly is one of the best ways
to travel to work. The area around Cobalt is surrounded by a network of traffic-free routes which are
well lit, well surfaced and regularly maintained by North Tyneside Waggonways Officers, and consists of
bridleways, refurbished colliery waggonways and railway lines. With the wide range of flora and fauna
on site including a score of varied animal life- ranging from rabbits to kestrals-your journey by foot is
sure to be an interesting one!
The designated Cobalt Walk Officer would be only too happy to advise on the most suitable walking
route for you. There is also the BUDI walk system where you can match your journey with other staff on
Cobalt Park. Cobalt’s walking group meets regularly over the lunchtime period to explore the
surrounding countryside of the park. Three maps are also available for download for self-led walks
which follow circular routes taking 15, 25 and 30 minutes commencing from Cobalt Business Park.
