Doncaster car hire

As with many cities in the UK, the kind of Doncaster car hire to choose will very much depend on where you intend to spend the majority of your time. If you’ll be based in the city centre, then it’s advisable to get a city car or compact saloon to make getting through the traffic as easy and convenient as possible. If you’re exploring the surrounding areas and have more time on your hands, then an MPV will make a good choice, and you’ll also easily be able to get around in a minibus if you’re travelling as a group or have a large family.

Doncaster has specific roads designated as "restricted" based on the distance between streetlights. On these roads, like Doncaster Road Bawtry, the speed limit is 30mph. On all the other roads the speed limit is 60mph on single carriageways, going up to 70mph on dual carriageways and the motorways in and out of the city. You should also watch out for the very latest type of speed cameras on Barnsley Road from the A1 junction onwards.

You’ll pay for parking during the day in Doncaster, but after 18:00, all the council-operated car parks become free from Monday to Saturday. They’re also free all day on Sundays. These include the ones on Churchway Road and College Road. Car parks that offer closest access to the city centre include Chamber Road Car Park and Colonnades, where tariffs start at about £0.50 to £1 per hour.
