Tips for Driving in Manchester

When driving around Greater Manchester and the surrounding countryside there are a few important things to note:

  • The A56, and particularly Bury New Road, to the north of the city is one to avoid during peak times, along with the A6 and particularly Buxton Road.
  • If you are planning a road trip of the UK’s northern cities then Manchester is very well connected. The most common route to take from Manchester to Leeds is via the M62, whilst you’re also likely take the M62 southbound when traveling to Liverpool. It is worth checking for live traffic updates before you set off to ensure you take the quickest route.
  • Ensure to have some spare change to hand in the event that your journey takes you along the M6. If you’re traveling in a normal car then you can expect some charges.
  • Manchester’s roads follow the same speed restrictions as the rest of the UK, unless specified otherwise, so stick to 70mph on motorways and dual carriageways, 60mph on selected carriageways and 30mph in residential roads that aren’t signposted as 20mph.
  • If you do venture out into the Pennines or further into the Lake District national park then it’s vital to be aware of the danger posed by wild deer and sheep. Drive sensibly and be on the lookout for any wild animals crossing roads or around tight bends.
  • In the event of an emergency, the number to contact is 999 where the operator will be able to connect you with the appropriate emergency service.
