Franklin has a lot of narrow, winding roads in the rural areas and they are not much wider in the downtown area. However, it also is surrounded by some rugged terrain and may have some dirt or gravel roads. As a result, a small SUV is a good choice, as it combines a higher ground clearance with a small build to easily fit into parking spaces or go around tight turns. A smaller SUV also provides good fuel efficiency and enough space to accommodate your luggage and your entire travel party.

The speed limit in Franklin will vary depending on the type of road and the location. Most residential areas and business districts have a speed limit of around 25 or 35 mph.

The speed limit on highways such as Route 28 may reach up to 65 mph in some places. Always check posted signage in case of any changes.
