Airport, station and city positions are real coordinates; the road and rail lines follow the corridor schematically, not the literal carriageway or track.

Adampur, which is on the outskirts of Jalandhar, is the closest aiport with scheduled flights. Amritsar is the nearest international airport.

Jalandhar City Junction (JUC) and Jalandhar Cantonment (JRC) both sit on the Delhi–Ambala–Ludhiana–Jalandhar–Amritsar main line — one of the busiest and best-served corridors in the country. Phagwara Junction (PGW), a stop closer to LPU, appears alongside the Jalandhar arrival in each table below.

From Delhi

• Vande Bharat (22487): the afternoon Vande Bharat from Delhi (DLI) directly halts at Phagwara Junction (19:06) before terminating near Jalandhar Cantt.
• Vande Bharat (22439): the morning Katra Vande Bharat Express (06:00 NDLS) skips Phagwara entirely and halts directly at Jalandhar Cantt (10:00).
• Shatabdi Expresses (12029 / 12013): both the morning and evening Shatabdi services make scheduled 2-minute halts at Phagwara Junction.

From Kolkata

Direct long-distance train operations from Kolkata (Howrah / Sealdah) heading to Northern Punjab cover approximately 1,800 km.

• Fastest direct route: Jallianwala Bagh Express (12379) is the fastest option (~25h 20m), though it runs weekly (Fridays only) and skips Phagwara.
• Regular halts at Phagwara: for direct access to Phagwara (PGW), daily operations like the Howrah Amritsar Mail (13005) or Himgiri Express (13049) offer dedicated stops.

From Mumbai

Operations out of Mumbai (Bandra Terminus / CSMT) run northward across ~1,735 km to reach Punjab.

• Fastest overall: Swaraj Express (12471) is the quickest operational connection from Mumbai at just over 24 hours, halting at both Phagwara Junction and Jalandhar Cantt.
• Daily connectivity: Golden Temple Mail (12903) and Paschim Express (12925) operate on all days and service both Phagwara and Jalandhar City.

Jalandhar City Junction is roughly 20 minutes by road from the LPU campus; Jalandhar Cantonment is slightly further out. Confirm the exact platform and current running time before travel.

The most flexible option for groups travelling with kit. Delhi to Jalandhar runs almost entirely on NH44, then a short stretch of GT Road into Phagwara.

Approximately 375–400 km, 5–6 hours by car depending on traffic through Panipat, Karnal and Ludhiana. NH44 is a divided four/six-lane highway for almost the entire distance; toll plazas are spaced roughly every 60–80 km.

Price bands are broad estimates from each property's star category for a November weekday stay, not quotes. On-campus hostel and PG accommodation carry no commercial rate here — coordinate placement with PTTA directly.

Four pickups in the Jawahar Nagar and BMC Chowk cluster, then straight to the venue with no further stops — roughly 50 minutes. The four hotels sit within about two kilometres of each other, so stop order follows position along the road rather than the listed distances, which differ by less than a kilometre.

To the venue

Bus 1 leaves Ramada Encore at 06:50 and lands players 15 minutes before the 08:00 practice session. Bus 2 leaves at 09:05 for players whose first match is in the 10:00 session.

From the venue

Bus 3 departs the stadium at 14:30 for players finished for the day. Bus 4 departs at 20:30, after the last match. Both run the pickup order in reverse.

Four pickups strung along the Jalandhar–Phagwara highway, then straight to the venue — roughly 45 minutes. Running these separately from the city cluster keeps the Paragpur hotels, which are barely ten kilometres out, off a bus that would otherwise have spent half an hour crossing Jalandhar first.

To the venue

Grand Majestic and Grand Lily are less than a kilometre apart at Paragpur; the listed distances put them in an order the road does not, so the bus takes them in road order.

From the venue

• Each bus will carry a PTTA/LPU volunteer with the stop list and a passenger manifest. Players are required to be ready at thier hotel lobby 10mins prior to schduled pick up time.
• Buses will stop for 3 minutes at each stop and then depart. Players who miss a bus will have to find their own alternative transport to the venue.
• Players staying in PG accommodation near the venue are not covered by these routes and should make their own arrangements or join at the nearest listed hotel by prior confirmation with PTTA.
