If you are planning on staying around Guildford or the surrounding villages during your stay, then an economy or compact car will best suit the winding cobbled roads and residential areas. With streets lined with businesses, restaurants and retailers, parking on the street is often necessary, and a smaller car makes that so much easier. However, if you plan on enjoying the surrounding countryside of Surrey, a 4x4 or saloon car could definitely assist in creating fun-filled memories – particularly if you are in a larger group.
With schools, colleges and thousands of pedestrians walking the Guildford streets every day, residents have called for stricter control on speed limit and the council has moved the speed limit in certain central and residential areas from 30mph to 20mph. On the surrounding motorways the speed limit rises to 70mph. The town of Guildford is strictly covered by traffic camera surveillance from the motorways right into town, so ensure you stick to the speed limit and look for signage in areas that could suddenly change speed limits fast.
Parking in Guildford is, for the most part, rather affordable. There are several car parks that offer hourly or daily rates within walking distance of the town centre, such as Castle Car Park, Leapald Road, Bedford Road Multi-storey and several others. The average hourly rate is about £1. Night owls will be able to find streets in the city centre where parking is free between 20:00 and 8:00. If you fancy leaving your car for a longer period to meander the streets on foot, there are four main ‘park-and-ride’ car parks that offer excellent rates of approximately £2 per day.
