Both the city of Madrid and its region's geographic location has allowed them to be excellently connected with the rest of the country, as both are in the center of the Iberian peninsula.
The Spanish road and railway network, being radial, has made it easy to connect them with the other Spanish cities as well as with the countries which share its border.
The excellent union among the numerous cities and villages that form the Autonomous Region of Madrid benefit from this.
Road network
Seven State highways link the city of Madrid to the rest of the important Spanish cities. In addition, the capital has a series of highways that makes the communication between the capital and many other cities inside the region easy.
The Autonomous Region of Madrid State Road Network
The basic structure of the Spanish road network is radial, centered in Madrid. Seven main highways exist: A-1, Madrid-Burgos-Irún, A-2, Madrid-Barcelona- La Junquera, A-3, Madrid-Valencia, A-4, Madrid-Sevilla, A-5, Madrid-Badajoz and A-6, Madrid-A Coruña.
Beltways
When you come into the city of Madrid along any of the 6 above mentioned highways you will reach three succesive rings called M-50, M-40 and M-30 which will make your entrance easy. The M-30 is located inside the city so it is another option of moving within the city.
The Roads
The Autonomous Region of Madrid's road network compliments the extraordinary state development from which our region benefits thanks to Madrid's traditional importance as capital of the state.
Each and every town of Madrid is connected by local and regional roads, and these towns are also linked with the towns of other provinces that belong to other nearby communities.
