Transportation

Kentucky’s location in the geographical center of the Eastern United States, place the Commonwealth in a strong position to compete in the global marketplace. With its borders within 600 miles of two-thirds of the nation’s population, personal income, and manufacturing business establishments, Kentucky’s Intermodal freight and passenger transportation systems have reached out to provide safe, efficient and cost-effective access to all points of the globe.

Locally, Northern Kentucky is well-served by:

• Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport
• Three major interstate highways, two local interstates and several U.S. highways
• Two railroad systems
• The Port of Cincinnati, the fifth largest inland U.S. port for domestic barge loads.
