Until 2011, Hindhead village was situated on the main [[A3 road]] between [[London]] and [[Portsmouth]]. In that year, a £371&nbsp;million bypass was completed, reducing the amount of traffic passing through the village. The bypass includes the [[Hindhead Tunnel|{{convert|1.9|mi|km|adj=on}} twin-bore tunnel]], the longest non-estuarial road tunnel in the UK.<ref>[http://www.tunnels.mottmac.com/projects/?mode=type&id=3402 A3 Hindhead Tunnel - Mott MacDonald Project Page] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070504015651/http://www.tunnels.mottmac.com/projects/?mode=type&id=3402 |date=4 May 2007 }}</ref>

The village is served by the [[A287 road|A287]], between [[Hook, Hart|Hook]] and [[Haslemere]], and the [[A333 road|A333]], a stretch of the former A3 that links the village south to the new bypass. The section of the old A3 north of Hindhead and alongside the Devil's Punch Bowl has been returned to tree-interspersed [[heathland]].

The nearest railway station is at [[Haslemere railway station|Haslemere]], {{convert|2.6|mi|km}} away, on the [[Portsmouth Direct Line]] between [[London Waterloo railway station|London Waterloo]] and [[Portsmouth Harbour railway station|Portsmouth Harbour]] stations. Hindhead is served by several [[Stagecoach South]] bus routes linking nearby towns and villages and connections further afield,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://tiscon-maps-stagecoachbus.s3.amazonaws.com/Timetables/South/Aldershot/AL17%2C18%2C19Timetable17Feb19.pdf|title=Timetable for Stagecoach South services 17,18,19|access-date=29 April 2019}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://tiscon-maps-stagecoachbus.s3.amazonaws.com/Timetables/South/Basingstoke/Basingstoke%20Route%209_13_23_17-02-19_webfile.pdf|title=Stagecoach South services 13/23/23X|access-date=29 April 2019}}</ref> and [[National Express Coaches]] between Portsmouth and London.<ref>{{cite web|title=030 National Express Shuttle|url=https://bustimes.org/services/030-london-southsea|access-date=29 April 2019}}</ref>
