Will the traffic and parking be easier in York on a week day or a weekend?

Will the traffic and parking be easier in York on a week day or a weekend? - Expensive black tuned sports car with glossy surface and big front body kit riding on paved road out of city in daylight

Driving up from the Peak District, is driving in to York more busy on a week day or a weekend?

The former would have regular works, the latter would have more tourists. I'm not sure what the relative numbers are for both in York specifically.



Best Answer

Use google Maps' Historical Traffic

Using maps.google.com you can show traffic for arbitrary times of the week:

I use this regularly to answer these types of questions. On perhaps its most useful occasion I determined that landing at LAX at 6:45pm on a weekday was a way better idea than landing at 5:00pm.


Note: I don't really know whether the map shown is the route you are talking about nor have I ever driven in Britain. But I have found google's historical traffic data to be a very good predictor of future traffic wherever it is available. Certainly more reliable than a single person's opinion.
