Hull car rental driving guide

Driving in and around Hull

Historic Hull has a bustling city centre, an exciting waterfront and serves as the regional centre for a wide area of Yorkshire, Humberside and Lincolnshire. This means there is a great network of roads linking the city with the surrounding towns and villages.

You’ll find that the A63 and A165 form a simple ring road around the centre of Hull to help you navigate your way round the city. Follow the A63 west to find the magnificent Humber Bridge which crosses the river to North Lincolnshire. Driving across the bridge is an experience in its own right – it’s one of the longest of its type in the world.

You can stay on the A63 to reach the M62, the main east-to-west motorway in northern England. This allows you to drive further west to meet the M18 and M1 or visit cities like Leeds, Bradford and Sheffield.

Other trunk roads radiating from Hull will take you north to the elegant town of Beverley, east into the spectacular Spurn Head peninsular, north-west into the rural scenery of the Wolds and northeast towards Yorkshire’s Heritage Coast.

The landscape is very flat until you reach the rolling Wolds and the driving is generally easy and relaxed. Traffic is usually light and the roads are good quality, even in the most rural spots.

When driving in the city centre, be aware of the one-way system in operation, especially in and around Manor Street and Whitefriargate.
