==Location== The town is approximately {{convert|10|mi|1}} south-west of [[Northampton]] and about {{convert|11|mi|1}} north-west of [[Milton Keynes]], the nearest main towns. Oxford is about {{convert|20|mi|1}} south-west via the [[A43 road]], [[M40 motorway]] and [[A34 road (England)|A34 road]]. The A43 now bypasses the town to the north but the [[A5 road (Great Britain)|A5 road]] still passes through the town centre. This still carries much traffic in the north-south direction.<ref name= "NJPU"/><ref name="NJPU2011"/> This is expected to change soon with a new A5 to A43 link bypassing the town to the south, expected to be completed by 2025.<ref name=":0" /> [[Northampton railway station]] is the nearest railway station, being {{convert|10|mi}} away from the town. Buses to Northampton, Milton Keynes, [[Brackley]], [[Potterspury]], [[Deanshanger]], [[Silverstone]] and [[Biddlesden]] operate, but these are infrequent.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Brave Old Oak PH Β· Towcester NN12 6BT, United Kingdom|url=https://www.google.com/maps/place/Brave+Old+Oak+PH/@52.1325373,-0.9912977,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x48771b3ce9801b3b:0x11e57e5953cb97f9!8m2!3d52.132534!4d-0.989109|access-date=2021-11-01|website=Brave Old Oak PH Β· Towcester NN12 6BT, United Kingdom|language=en}}</ref>
