Old Street is built around the roundabout where City Road meets the A501, the heart of the tech district everyone still calls Silicon Roundabout. A flat amid that traffic is the last thing you want, so Fast Tyre comes to you.
Old Street sits on the boundary between the City and Islington, gathered around the roundabout that the tech crowd long ago nicknamed Silicon Roundabout. The streets here are a mix of converted warehouses, glass office blocks and older estates around St Luke's and Bunhill, and the traffic almost never settles. City Road and the A501 push a constant stream of buses, taxis and delivery vans through the junction, and that is hard on tyres: kerbed alloys in tight permit bays, potholes worn into the heavily used approaches, and screws and nails picked up where building work and deliveries never stop.
The layout makes a tyre problem worse. The roundabout is no place to change a wheel, the surrounding side streets off Featherstone Street and Goswell Road are resident permit only and packed by morning, and stopping on the A501 is simply not an option. A puncture here turns quickly into a hunt for anywhere safe to deal with it.
Fast Tyre runs out to Old Street our North London base, fitting your tyre wherever you happen to be: an office car park off City Road, a permit bay in St Luke's, or pulled in away from the roundabout. We work 24 hours a day, every day of the year, and we are usually with you in 30 to 60 minutes to sort it on the spot.
Old Street drivers know the roundabout is no place to be stuck and the side streets give you nowhere to work. The permit bays are full by morning, the A501 offers nowhere to stop, and the office blocks swallow what little kerbside space there is. Limping to a garage through the EC1V traffic, then trying to park, is a waste of a working day. A local fitter who knows the streets around Silicon Roundabout and comes straight to your bay takes the journey out of it entirely.
The situations we get called out to most often across Old Street:
The roundabout itself is a swirl of buses, bikes and turning vans with nowhere safe to stop. If a tyre goes here, work your way off onto a quieter side street, tell us exactly where you have pulled in, and we will come straight to you.
City Road carries non-stop delivery and bus traffic, so debris in the gutter makes slow punctures a regular complaint. We will meet you at your office, a permit bay nearby or wherever you have parked and deal with it before the tyre goes fully flat.
The tight resident bays around St Luke's and Featherstone Street are an easy place to scuff an alloy or bruise a sidewall. If you have clipped a kerb squeezing in, we will come to the car where it sits and check the tyre on the spot.
Our mobile units reach every part of Old Street and the surrounding Greater London area, including:
We attend roadside tyre emergencies on the main routes in and around Old Street, 24 hours a day:
If the tyre can be safely repaired we will say so rather than sell you a replacement you do not need. We reach City Road and the Bunhill Fields area as readily as the Clerkenwell side of town, because the van is already moving. The van carries the sizes Old Street drivers actually run, in premium, mid-range and budget, so the choice gets made at the kerb rather than over the phone. Payment is by card or contactless on site, and the figure you were given on the phone is the figure you pay.
