Concord: Transportation

Approaching the City

Local air carriers use facilities at the Concord Municipal Airport, located approximately two miles east of downtown. Flight training is offered at the airport, which also serves as a Federal Aviation Administration Weather Service Station. The nearby Manchester Airport offers daily passenger service on nine airlines. Full international and domestic service is available at Logan International Airport, 75 miles to the southeast in Boston, Massachusetts.

Intercity bus lines traveling through Concord include Vermont Transit, Greyhound, and Concord Trailways. Concord is located at the junction of Interstates 93, 89, 393, and New Hampshire Route 4. State highways running through the area include 3A, 9, 13, 36, 103, and 106. I-93 is the major north-south artery, while I-89 branches to the northwest, as do highways 3 and 4.

Traveling in the City

Concord's main business district occupies a seven-block area between Main and State streets. The state government area dominates the business center with several buildings at Capitol and Main streets. Its compact downtown makes Concord an eminently walkable city; however, taxicabs are also available. Concord Area Transit (CAT) provides bus service through downtown Concord and surrounding areas, Monday through Friday.
