Editing Kidderminster (section)

==Transport==
;Rail
Two railway stations in the town share the same approach road and are located less than fifty metres apart. The main [[National Rail]] station, operated by [[West Midlands Trains]], is [[Kidderminster railway station|Kidderminster]], from where trains run to [[Birmingham]] and [[Worcester, England|Worcester]]. The other station, [[Kidderminster Town railway station|Kidderminster Town]], is the terminus of the preserved Heritage Railway line, [[Severn Valley Railway]], from where trains run to [[Bridgnorth]].

;Road
Several major routes run through the town, including the [[A456 road|A456]] which runs from Birmingham to just south of [[Woofferton]], [[Shropshire]]; the [[A451 road|A451]] which runs from Stourbridge to [[Abberley]]; the [[A442 road|A442]] which runs from [[Droitwich]] to [[Hodnet]], Shropshire (a few miles north of [[Telford]]); the [[A449 road|A449]] which runs from [[Newport, Wales|Newport]] in south Wales to [[Stafford]] and crosses the A456 at the Land Oak; and the [[A448 road]] which starts in the town and goes to [[Studley, Warwickshire|Studley]] in [[Warwickshire]], via [[Bromsgrove]] and [[Redditch]]. A major change in the town centre road infrastructure was the construction of the ring road in the 1970s and 1980s. This relieved the town's growing congestion but diverted traffic outside the centre, drawing off customers for businesses. The final phase of the ring road was never completed, which results in the town having a ring road that does not form a complete ring.

The nearest motorway is the [[M5 motorway|M5]], which signs Kidderminster from junction 3 ([[Halesowen]]) with the A456, and junction 6 (Worcester North) with the A449.
