Manchester is located
at the virtual heart of the British Isles and is easily accessed via
motorway from all major airports and from the English Channel ports.From
the M2 or M20 Motorways, London's M25 Orbital Motorway is directly accessed,
and from there northwards up the M42 or the M1 Motorways to the Industrial
Midlands. At Birmingham the M6 Motorway leads directly to the outskirts
of Greater Manchester, and then the M62, M60, M602 and M56 motorways
lead directly into the city centre.
