Driving in St Helens

St Helens is an incredibly well-connected town. The A580 will get you to Liverpool in around 40 minutes, or you can hop on the M62 to arrive in Manchester in less than an hour. Many other major cities, like Sheffield and Birmingham, are just a couple of hours away via the M6.

For something a little different, consider a trip to the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley in Wales, a designated National Landscape (also known as Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Wales, Northern Ireland and England).

The main roads through the town – James Roby Way and the A58 – make getting to local sights just as easy. As you’d expect, the roads and the nearby motorway junction are busy during the morning and evening rush hours.

When you’re ready to leave your wheels and explore the town, there are plenty of parking options in and around the centre. The car parks at Birchley Street, St Helens Central Station and the Millennium Centre are all open 24 hours a day and accept long-term stays.
