Manchester benefits from one of the most extensive regional motorway networks in the country, comprising 20% of the total UK motorway system. The property is accessed via one of the main arterial routes into Mnachester via either the M60 orbital motorway or the M602, which in turn connects to the wider north west network M62, M61, M6 and M66 respectively.
Manchester City Centre has three mainline railway stations (Manchester Piccadilly, Oxford Road and Victoria). There are 56 trains daily from Manchester to London with a journey time of approximately 2 hours.
