Cardiff: Where Culture, Coastlines and Congestion Collide
Cardiff is a city where medieval castles meet modern stadiums, and where a quick trip down the A48 can turn into a scenic detour, or a traffic jam, depending on the time of day. The city centre is framed by icons like Cardiff Castle, City Hall, and the National Museum. At the same time, the Principality Stadium pulses with energy on matchdays, sending waves of traffic through Westgate Street and beyond.
Cardiff’s mix of urban roads, coastal air, and seasonal traffic surges is a reminder that regular MOTs aren’t just a legal requirement: they’re essential for safe, smooth driving across the Welsh capital.
