Edinburgh City Region is one of Scotland's best-connected areas, with a sophisticated transport and communications network linking it with the rest of the UK, Europe and beyond.
More than 40 airlines fly to over 100 destinations worldwide from Edinburgh International Airport, including New York (JFK), Newark and Toronto.
Edinburgh City Region is the hub of Scotland's A-road numbering system and home to Scotland's busiest airport, Britain's biggest train station outside London and the largest freight port area in Scotland.
High population density and transport frequency across a large travel to work area means short commuter times and a wide recruitment pool for employers.
Significant investment is underway in a number of flagship transport projects across the city, including airport expansion and a new tram system.
With a competitive choice of suppliers and high-speed services, levels of e-connectivity in Edinburgh are among the highest in the UK.
