By road
Lincoln sits on the A46 between Newark, Nottinghamshire, and Grimsby, Lincolnshire, and at the southern end of the A15. Lincoln is surrounded by minor roads and Lincolnshire itself has no motorways. The central area of Lincoln consists of narrow one-way roads and pedestrianised areas so driving is not recommended. The St. Marks shopping centre has ample parking, and there is a multi-storey car park in the centre of town, near the University and Brayford Pool.A seasonal Christmas Market Park and Ride service is available and the easiest way to get to the Market.National Park and Ride Directory (http://www.parkandride.ne...)
By Rail
Lincoln is served by trains from Newark and Grimsby. Newark is on the East Coast Main Line with fast links to London. Generally, rail journeys are fairly punctual, if a bit uncomfortable. Certain services from Nottingham to Lincoln may be only a single carriage and may be very crowded. East Midlands Trains, the train operator, is working on this problem and say that the public should see improvements in the service shortly.
