  • Car rentals in New Britain offer you several advantages. First, you get the freedom to explore the city at your pace. Driving is the best way to experience the city. You get the freedom to decide when you are going to visit a place. You can also stop along the way and soak in the adventure while taking pictures of the journey. In addition, car rentals are reliable, unlike public transport, which often has peak hours, service hours, and days. You can easily explore the city's New Britain Museum of Art, Walnut Hill Park, and Stanley Quarter Park with a car rental in New Britain.
  • When flying to New Britain, you will mostly arrive via Bradley International Airport. Once you pick up your luggage from the baggage claim area, proceed to the courtesy bus pick-up location. If you are arriving at the new terminal building, head outside the first roadway. When coming via Terminal B, head to second street. Shuttles operate every five minutes. Some car rental agencies at the facility operate daily from 4 am to 12 am, while others offer 24-hour services. We recommend making earlier arrangements to avoid waiting in line for easy pick-up.

Each driver and passenger must have seat belts on. Children under seven, less than 60 pounds, must be in booster seats. In marked or unmarked crosswalks, always yield to pedestrians as they have the right of way. Always yield to drivers already in the circle when entering a traffic circle. At intersections with no stop signs, always yield to incoming traffic. At four-way stops, the vehicle on the right has the right of way.
  • Driving in the city is New Britain is easy but has some challenges. First, rush hour peaks daily from 76 am to 9 am and 4 pm to 6 pm.
