Rock Hill is ideally located on the I-77 corridor between Charlotte, NC and Columbia, SC. Interstate 85, just north of York County, is an important link to Raleigh, Durham and Greensboro, North Carolina and to Atlanta, Georgia. A planned beltway connecting I-85 to I-77 will provide Rock Hill with superb transportation routes throughout the Charlotte metro region.

Charlotte/Douglas International Airport is 25 minutes north of Rock Hill via I-77. This facility averages 550 flights daily on eight major and four commuter carriers, providing non-stop or single plane service to more than 160 cities. Direct flights to London, Frankfurt and Munich offer global air service to international companies. With 19 cargo airlines and over 60 freight forwarders, Charlotte cargo service offers under 2-hour flight service to more than half the U.S. population, as well as service to Europe, the Mideast, the Far East, South America and Mexico.

The Rock Hill- York County Airport/Bryant Field is IFR certified, and is the major business/industrial airport serving the area. The airport supports passenger and airfreight service on demand but has no scheduled airfreight due the facility’s location within a half-hour of Charlotte/Douglas International.

For corporate pilots, this airport is the ideal alternative to the inevitable long departure and arrival delays typical of a large international airport, offering top-notch service in a first class, 7200-square-foot terminal building.

Rail freight service is provided in York County by CSX Transportation and the Norfolk Southern Railway, and Amtrak passenger service is also available out of nearby Charlotte. A comprehensive Light Rail system linking the entire Charlotte metro area is in the planning stages.

The Port of Charleston is a short 3-hour drive from Rock Hill via I-77 & I-26. The Port features modern terminals and a well-deserved reputation for high productivity. There are more than 350 highly experienced transportation-related companies in the Charleston area that can meet any shipping need.
