As an investment location, Nottingham makes perfect sense in terms of its proximity to the rest of the UK. With trains to London taking as little as one hour and 40 minutes, while trains to the Northern Powerhouse city of Manchester take less than two hours, it is one of the most central locations in the country. When the proposed HS2 rail link comes to Nottingham, it will shorten journey times to London to just 52 minutes.
Within the city, Nottingham has an award-winning integrated transport system including bus, tram and rail services, which are hugely popular with the city’s young professionals and students in particular. It means that many people commute from the outer suburban areas of the city.
By road, the M1 which runs the length of the country down to London sits just outside Nottingham. The city is also served by East Midlands Airport less than half an hour from the centre, offering both national and international flights.
