Louth railway station was a major intermediate station on the East Lincolnshire Railway which ran from Boston to Grimsby from 1848 and was also once served by rail motor services.
The station had an extensive good yards which served the malt kilns.

Louth was the northern terminus of the Mablethorpe Loop.
The line which ran through the nearby villages and seaside towns of Mablethorpe, Sutton-on-Sea, Grimoldby, Saltfleetby, Theddlethorpe, Mumby and Willoughby.
The station was the terminus on the Louth to Bardney Line which opened in 1876 but closed in 1951 to passengers and to freight traffic in 1960.
Bardney was the terminus of the branch line and was on the Lincolnshire Loop Line
The station closed to passengers in 1970 along with the Mablethorpe Loop Line and the section from Firsby to Louth of the East Lincolnshire Railway.
The section to Grimsby remained in use for freight traffic until December 1980 when it closed and was later removed.

The station building and Louth North Signal Box remain in situ to this day as private dwellings.
All of the station site has been built on by residential and commercial outlets.

There are plans to eventually have Louth as the southern terminus of the Lincolnshire Wolds Railway which would utilise the trackbed from Louth to Holton-Le-Clay, although it will be to the north of Louth due to the station building now being occupied and the station site around it built over.
This would mean Louth would have a rail connection for the first time in almost 50 years, since the closure to passengers in 1970, but at a new station site.

A canal was built between 1765 and 1770 to connect Louth to the sea at Tetney.
It was formally abandoned in 1924.

A fuller account is at Louth Canal.

There are regular buses connecting Louth with the nearby Grimsby, Skegness, Mablethorpe and Lincoln.
There is also a direct service once a month to York and National Express coaches call at Louth bus station.
All services are operated by different companies but the main one is Stagecoach.
However, unlike other towns.
The town is not served by late-night services with the last bus departing the town at 7:00 pm.

The nearest active railway station is now Grimsby and Skegness.
