When it comes to making your choice for Dorchester car hire, we recommend getting a compact saloon or a city car for driving in the downtown area. This will give you great manoeuvrability and will prove more fuel-efficient than something more powerful. If you intend to take day trips, you won't need anything special, as the road surfaces are in good condition. If you're visiting with a larger group or with your family, get something larger like an MPV or a roomy saloon. You can also treat yourself to a sports car or a convertible if you're an avid driver.
There are several speed zones in Dorchester. As usual in the UK, in the built-up areas of the town, the speed limit is 30 mph. On the primarily residential roads, in the pedestrianised downtown district, and around schools and markets the limit is lowered to 20 mph. On the quieter suburban roads, you can drive at up to 40 mph, and at 50 mph on bypasses and radial routes. On good quality rural A roads the limit is 60 mph. On the dual carriageways and motorways between towns, you can travel at up to 70 mph.
You shouldn't have any trouble finding free parking in Dorchester. The large Fairfield car park, the one on Lower Trinity Street and the Old Market Car Park are three of the main ones in the centre of town. Other free car parks are in Acland Road and at Colliton Park. You can also park for free at the Wollaston Field Car Park and the one on Durngate Street. These all provide 2 hours of parking without charge.
