Stockport is an industrial town on the outskirts of a large city and is therefore heavily built up with multi-lane roads and intersections. As such, extra care and concentration may be required during busy periods. Arranging a sat nav with your car hire in Stockport is a great way to avoid stress when finding your way around. Main roads are usually nice and wide, although residential streets can be narrow and lined with parked cars.
Stockport is situated by the Manchester outer ring road, and Wellington Road, which runs through the town, takes you straight into Manchester. It’s advisable to avoid these areas as much as possible during rush hour, as high volumes of commuter traffic often cause long delays. The hours between 7:00 and 9:30 and 16:00 and 18:30 are when it tends to reach its peak, with a small lunchtime rise around 12:30–14:00. Winter can bring heavy rain, snow and wind to Stockport, so you may have to adjust your speed accordingly in harsher conditions.
