Bradford transport

By road

Bradford has a well-developed road freight transport network, with several major motorways passing through or near the city, including the M62 and M606. This makes it a strategic hub for road freight transport, with connections to other major cities and ports. However, congestion and air pollution can be significant challenges for freight operators.

By sea

Bradford is an inland city and does not have direct access to the sea. However, the Port of Liverpool, which is located about 60 miles away, provides a vital link for sea freight transport to and from the region. The port handles a range of cargo, including container, bulk, and roll-on/roll-off shipments.

By air

Leeds Bradford Airport is the closest airport to Bradford, providing connections to domestic and international markets. The airport has a cargo handling facility and can accommodate a range of cargo aircraft. Air freight is particularly important for the transportation of time-sensitive and high-value goods, such as electronics and medical supplies.
