Transport

05 Jul 2009

Located at the heart of Britain’s road and rail network, Birmingham is easily accessible from all parts of the country. By rail, London is just 75 minutes away and there are three major railway stations in Birmingham city centre – New Street, Snow Hill and Moor Street. The city is also accessible via the M1, M5, M6, M40 and M42 motorways.

Due to the nature of this event there will be some road closures, details of vehicle restrictions and diversions will appear here.

Birmingham International Airport (BIA) is approximately 25 minutes travelling time from Birmingham city centre and is one of the UK’s largest airports outside of London. Last year BIA handled more than nine million passengers through its two terminals and the airport provides direct scheduled links to over 100 destinations from all over the world.
