Transportation
Being located out on a peninsula, most major transportation arteries go to the west of Horten, and secondary roads connect the city to these routes. A ferry line (the Bastø Ferry) across the Oslofjord runs between Horten and Moss in Østfold.
The railway line Vestfoldbanen passes through the Horten municipality, but not through the main city center. Skoppum Station is located southwest of the downtown, although several commuters prefer to use Holmestrand Station due to better road access.
