By Car

The M6 runs right through Lancashire, connecting to the M61, M65, M55 and a number of major A roads. In less than an hour from  Manchester, Liverpool and Leeds you could be exploring the Pennine Fells, sitting down to eat a meal in the Ribble Valley or driving along Blackpool’s promenade.

A number of journey planning websites offer planners for car and cycle as well as rail and coach fares information, maps of routes, areas and interchanges
