Travel Information - By Road

"The Officers of the Society and the delegates, from as far afield as Argentina, Albania, Ukraine, India, Japan, China and the USA, all expressed their great enjoyment of the conference." - Joseph Conrad Society

Travel arrangements are the responsibility of delegates. You are advised to check connections carefully using the websites mentioned and ensure that the timetable you are using is up to date, nearer the time, in case of changes. You should always allow for extra time if travelling on public transport in case of delays. As Lincoln is a city in a rural setting, please note that public transport during the night is very limited. Website links are correct at the time of publication.

Lincoln is easily accessible via the M1, A1 and A46 from the South and via the M180 and A15 from the North.
