Redditch car hire

Redditch is a relatively new town in the UK, so it doesn’t have lots of narrow, cobbled roads to be mindful of. Nevertheless, a compact economy vehicle may suit travelling along the occasional residential street lined with parked cars. A larger saloon or SUV is better for longer trips on motorways or if the whole family is coming along for the ride with you.

The speed limit in the centre of Redditch is usually 30mph, apart from roads near schools, which are reduced to 20mph. There are stretches of road on the outskirts of town, such as on the A441, where a 30mph speed limit applies, so look out for signs and speed cameras that can be common along these kinds of roads. On motorways like the M5, the limit is set to 70mph unless signposted otherwise.

It’s not so hard to find a parking spot in the centre of Redditch and the prices are fairly reasonable. The car park at Kingfisher Centre is right in the middle of town and costs around £1.50 per hour. On the edge of town, you can find parking for around £1.20 per hour at Ipsley Street and it’s only a short walk (10-15min) into the centre.
