Bromsgrove is intersected by the A38 which was bypassed to the east of the town in 1980, the M5 motorway borders the west side and the M42 motorway starts at the north of the town. Bromsgrove railway station is situated to the south of the town. It sits at the foot of the Lickey Incline which is the steepest Incline on the British mainline network meaning most freight trains require assistance from a locomotive at the rear. Between 1919 and 1956 this was operated by a purpose built locomotive known by drivers as Big Bertha. There are frequent trains to Birmingham New Street, Worcester Foregate Street and Hereford. On 4 May 2007, Network Rail announced that a new station would be built, to replace the existing structure, at a cost in the region of £10–12 million. The station opened in July 2016.There is also a bus station adjacent to the high street. Buses operate to a wide area of Worcestershire and the West Midlands. Bromsgrove is located on National Cycle Route 5 of the National Cycle Network. It is also the terminus of cycle route 46. There are a number of public bicycle stands in Bromsgrove Town Centre. These are situated on the car park adjacent to the Queen's Head pub on the North end of town, outside Bromsgrove Library, on Chapel Street (opposite Lloyd's Bank), on Church Street (next to the Bus Station) and on the southern end of the high street, near to the Golden Cross Hotel.
