Thanks to its central location, Birmingham is a major transport hub on the motorway, rail and canal network. Birmingham airport lies just under 15 miles outside the city centre, with 143 direct destinations, and daily flights to New York, Istanbul, Dubai, and frequent flights to major European cities. The city is served by the M5, M6, M40, and M42 motorways - and Britain’s best known motorway junction - “Spaghetti Junction”.
Birmingham's train stations are a national hub for CrossCountry and Virgin Trains, and will later become the northern terminals for High Speed 2 when it opens in 2026, helping you get home right on time.
One of Britain’s key commercial centres in the international market; Birmingham has three universities and two university colleges, making it not only the largest centre of higher education outside London, but also one of the most esteemed.
