Rail
The Bnei Brak Railway Station opened in 1949 but was closed during the 1990s for refurbishment. It was reopened, and rebuilt in 2000. The station is, however, a fair distance from the city centre and so less accessible. The station is served by trains on the suburban Kfar Saba to Rishon LeZion line.
Road
Bnei Brak's eastern border is demarcated by Highway 4, to the west the city is easily accessible from the Ayalon Highway.
