The cathedral city of Ely is the centre of East Cambridgeshire. The A10 links it with Cambridge to the south and Littleport, Downham Market and King’s Lynn to the north. The A142 runs west to Chatteris and south-east to Soham and Newmarket. The southern bypass carries the A142 over the railway and the river, so traffic no longer waits at the old level crossing.
24 hour car recovery in Ely
- Breakdowns on the A10, especially at the busy roundabouts around Ely and on the stretch to Littleport.
- Cars stopped on the A142 between Ely and Chatteris, out on the open fen.
- Cars that won’t start in Ely city centre car parks and at the station.
- Commuter cars stuck at Soham, Littleport and the villages.
Ely is further from our Peterborough base than the Fenland towns, so tell us exactly where you are and we’ll give you an honest arrival time and the full price on the call.
