Location & travel info

General Travel Information

Milan is easily reached by plane, train or private car.
Three main airports serve the city: Milano Linate, Milano Malpensa and Milano Orio al Serio; all three airports are connected to major city's railway stations through regular coach and/or train services.

There are several railway stations in the city center, all connected to the underground network; the main ones are Cadorna Station and Centrale Station, where most national and international trains, and coach/train services from the airports terminate.

Milano Leonardo Campus of Politecnico di Milano is reached by the underground line 2 (MM2 green line), Piola Station. The campus is also reachable by car. It is located outside the Pollution Charging Zone, so the daily Pollution Charge payment is not necessary to get there by car. Nevertheless parking might be very difficult, especially on weekdays.

Accomodation

Milan might happen to be overbooked during the workshop. If you need information about the accomodation, the organizers will be glad to help you.
