The first question to ask is why are you staying in the area? If you are planning on staying local, a compact economy car is a great option, allowing you to navigate urban areas and park up with ease. If you are thinking of taking advantage of Dartford’s fantastic motorway links, then a more powerful car will be better suited to the job and also offer more comfort on longer journeys.

The centre of Dartford mostly implements a 30mph speed limit, although there are plenty of 20mph zones being introduced for quieter areas. Always drive responsibly and stay alert to your surroundings, particularly residential and school areas. It is also important to note that many motorways nearby use variable speed limits, so pay attention to road signs as these can be updated depending on current congestion.

Working with Kent County Council, Dartford Borough Council has provided a number of options for drivers to park up safely and affordably. You will be able to find a number of pay and display car parks and on-street bays, with information on how to pay for your parking being available at these sites. They also maintain the Civic Centre Car Park, which is open to the public and barrier-controlled for added security. Prices generally start from just £1 for 2h , and many car parks offer free parking on Sundays.
