By train
In contrast to the southern part of the province, the capital, Caltanissetta, is quite easily accessible by rail.
By bus
Buses from Sais Trasporti and Etnatrasporti (Catania) towards Catania and Gela ensure connections.
By car
Caltanissetta is fairly central in Sicily, on the route between Palermo and Catania (through the interior) and the south coast with Gela and Agrigento.
There is a municipal bus network within the city of Caltanissetta, and the towns in the province are most easily reached by bus or—as is common in southern Sicily—by car.
