Olmedo is on the N-601 road (Adanero-Olmedo-Valladolid–Medina de Rioseco–León).
The Madrid–Valladolid high-speed rail line runs through the municipality, and Olmedo is planned to be the branching point for the high-speed line running to Zamora and Galicia.
Olmedo is at one end of a 14.4km test track for high speed trains, and the Talgo gauge changer system. Medina del Campo is at the other end.
