The area has a heavily used and extensive road network, in particular the arterial A61 and A38, the latter linking to the nearby junction 28 of the M1 motorway. The town grew as a centre for bus transport throughout the 20th century and still has extensive bus services. Alfreton's railway station, sited northeast of the town, was closed in the 1960s as part of the Beeching Axe, but on 7 May 1973 a station was opened on the same site called Alfreton and Mansfield Parkway. When Mansfield regained its own station as part of the Robin Hood Line reopenings, the name was changed to Alfreton. Services run to London St Pancras in the morning and evening peaks; an hourly service also runs to Liverpool and Norwich. An hourly service has been introduced to serve the Leeds to Nottingham route.
