it is sometimes restricted. There are several car parks
in the city and we can send you details. If you would like to hire a car in London try the following link;
Car parks in the city are well signposted, but it is sometimes frustrating finding a space.If you are travelling to Salisbury by car on a day trip try using the Park and Ride service. There are 4 parking areas on the edge of the city all of which are well signposted. Parking costs £2 for all day and upto 6 passengers are able to ride into town on the bus. Buses run every 10 - 20 mins depending on the time of day and it is sometimes quicker as they have some priority bus-lanes to by pass jams. Do not under any circumstances park your car in the city without buying a ticket. We have Parking Ambassadors (yes they're really called that!) who will issue you with a ticket for failing to pay a parking charge.
During many of our tours overseas visitors ask what many of the road signs mean. While we're happy to tell them, if you want to read what the signs mean before you get here try this link to the official government website on the Highway code which gives a comprehensive list of road signs in England http://www.highwaycode.gov.uk/signs_index.htm
