Bolton car hire

Economy and compact cars are recommended getting around the tightly packed streets in the town centre and it’s always easier to find parking for them. When travelling with family or a few friends, an intermediate vehicle or passenger van is a more appropriate mode of transport in terms of overall comfort.

The speed limit for travel around the town centre and other heavily populated areas and school zones is 20mph, with limits increasing to 30mph on roads outside restricted areas. You are allowed to drive your Bolton car hire at 50mph on single carriageways such as the B6206, and at 60mph on dual carriageways such as the A579 or A666. The main arteries around Bolton are filled with junctions where speed cameras and CCTV are in effect, so keep an occasional eye on your speedometer while you’re cruising.

In Bolton, you are allowed to park on roads with single yellow lines between the hours of 18:00-20:30 from Monday to Saturday unless otherwise prohibited by street signs and on-street parking is free all day on Sundays.
