Transportation

Taxila is served by the Taxila Cantonment Junction railway station. Taxila Junction is served by the Karachi-Peshawar Railway Line, and is the southern terminus of the Khunjerab Railway, which connects Taxila to the Havelian railway station.

The ancient Grand Trunk Road is designated as N-5 National Highway, and connects the city to the Afghan border, and northern Punjab. The Karakoram Highway's southern terminus is in nearby Hasan Abdal, and connects Taxila to the Chinese border near the Hunza Valley.

The city is linked to Peshawar and Islamabad by the M-1 Motorway, which in turn offers wider motorway access to Lahore via the M-2 Motorway, and Faisalabad via the M-4 Motorway.

The nearest airport to Taxila is Islamabad's Benazir Bhutto International Airport, located 36.5 kilometers away. Peshawar's Bacha Khan International Airport is 155 kilometers away.
