Mobile tyre fitting
in Witton.

A fitter at your car
in Witton.

Much of the tyre damage in Witton comes off the Outer Circle. Aston Lane, Witton Bridge and Brookvale Road carry lorries to and from the trading estates all day, and the grit they leave in the gutters ends up in treads and sidewalls. Drivers heading home from the Gravelly Hill Interchange add a share of their own. Read out the tyre size from its sidewall, name the street or yard, and the fitter turns up with that tyre on the van, ready to put it on at the kerb or in the yard.

Drives, bays and car parks.

Estate yards give the best footing in Witton, flat and clear of passing traffic, as long as the site manager knows the van is coming. A driveway or a quiet side street off Witton Road suits most cars. If the car is still driveable, meeting in the Tesco car park is possible, subject to the store's rules. The Outer Circle itself, Witton Bridge and the approach to Witton station are not places to lift a car.

Calls split roughly three ways. Residents ring from the terraces around Witton Road and the streets towards Upper Witton and Brookvale Village, usually about a flat found outside the house. Firms ring from the estates: Holford, Tame Road, Deykin Park and Junction Six Industrial Park are all close by, and a van with a split tyre is the usual story there. The third group have come off the M6 at junction 6 with a tyre losing air. The fitter will not set up on Aston Lane or Brookvale Road themselves, since both carry heavy Outer Circle traffic with little room at the kerb, and on match days at the nearby football ground the surrounding roads fill early. Witton lies well outside the Clean Air Zone, and the charge never enters the picture.
