The main roads in Newmarket are the A1304 and the A14 bypass, which follows the town's northern border and connects it to Cambridge 13.5 miles away. The nearest motorway is the M11. Newmarket is famously the birthplace of thoroughbred horse racing and remains a major centre for horse health, so you may encounter some horses and riders on the road, in which case it's important to pass wide and slowly. The railway station is on the Ipswich-Ely Line.
Newmarket is in a rural area where you're likely to encounter uneven road surfaces and sharp turns, putting strain on your tyres and suspension. Regularly inspecting these components and following our tyre maintenance advice will help prevent any problems from developing. When driving through the countryside near Newmarket, keep an eye out for animals and livestock on the road to avoid braking suddenly, and be aware of other road users since there may be unmarked blind bends. Country roads sometimes flood during heavy rainfall, so check the forecast and take it slow through patches of water to avoid aquaplaning.
Brake discs spin with your car's wheels, while brake pads push on the discs to slow the vehicle. Due to the friction involved, these components wear down over time.
Typically, brake pads last between 25,000 to 65,000 miles, while discs usually last more than 50,000 miles. Learn more about how brakes work here.
When your brake pads need changing, you might notice heavy vibrating, a screeching sound, or your car may pull to the side. On the other hand, when your discs need replacing, symptoms may include a grinding sound, reduced performance, and a less responsive brake pedal. This guide covers five brake problems you shouldn't ignore.
The cost of brake pads and discs replacement depends on the type of vehicle. Booking a mobile brake fitting is sometimes cheaper than taking your car to a garage, and it's often more convenient. If you're wondering, "where can I get my brakes changed?", you're in the right place. We can help you find a car brake centre near you.
