Augusta car hire

A suitable vehicle for a visit to Augusta is a sedan or economy car, as smaller vehicles provide drivers with the agility to navigate urban streets and, in the summer months when the heat can be sweltering and tropical storms can arise, the interiors offer dry and air-conditioned refuge. In spring and fall, convertibles can be an enjoyable choice for renters.

Drivers can expect major highways, such as Interstate 520 (also known as Bobby Jones Expressway) to have a posted speed limit of 65mph. On other roads throughout the municipality, drivers can expect posted speed limits to be around 35mph. When in the downtown area, this drops to between 25mph and 30mph.

Augusta has several parking places available to visitors. For a lot of options in downtown and Old Towne, drivers should head to Broad Street—also known as Route 1—where the parking lots are accessible and conveniently near areas of interest. Many lots will be pay-to-park options, which can cost around $1.50 per hour, but there are free parking spots in the city if you can snag one.
