Centre of the Country by DUNK67
Birmingham is very easy to get to due to the central location of the city. There is a superb rail network linking Birmingham with the rest of the country and Birmingham International Airport is only about 15 minutes away by train. The Motorways M1, M5 , M6, M6 Toll Road and M42 are all pretty close by. Most of the motorways join up to form the famous Gravelly Hill Interchange, better known as Spaghetti Junction.
Getting round Birmingham can be achieved in several ways, by your own transport, bus, train, taxi, tram and even by canal.
Birmingham is said to have more canals than Venice.
