The area is also well served by the main east coast railway line for passengers and freight, and new stations are further improving accessibility. Fife is the base of many successful businesses with complex logistics. As a result it is served by a complete range of national, international and local carriers.

Next day delivery is available by road as far as the south of England, and rail freight links to Continental Europe are available from Mossend. Both Edinburgh and Glasgow airports are easily reached from Fife. Edinburgh airport can be reached more quickly from much of Fife than from many parts of Edinburgh. South Fife benefits from full Development Area status. This access to Scottish Office Grant Aid has undoubtedly assisted in attracting much of the inward investment success over the last few years, as well as the expansion of local export industries.
