Safety first
Broken down on the A6?
The historic A6 runs through the heart of the region: from Market Harborough and Kibworth into Leicester, north through Birstall, Quorn and Loughborough, past Kegworth into Derby, then up the Derwent valley through Duffield and Belper.
The A6 mixes town streets, single carriageway and dual sections. In town, pull into a side road if you can; on faster sections use a lay-by. Tell us which town you're nearest and the direction you're heading.
