Soham is a growing Fen-edge town on the A142 between Ely and Newmarket, with its reopened railway station drawing new commuters. When a tyre fails, Fast Tyre comes directly to your home or the roadside.
Soham is a Fen-edge town that has grown markedly in recent years, helped by the reopening of its railway station with services toward Ely and Cambridge. It sits on the A142, the main road between Ely and Newmarket, which carries a steady mix of commuters, freight and racing-related traffic. The town centre runs along the High Street, Pratt Street and Fountain Lane, with newer housing spreading out toward Qua Fen and Mereside.
The location brings familiar Fenland tyre hazards. The A142 is busy and fast for a single carriageway, the droves and B-roads out toward Wicken and Fordham crumble at the edges, and farm traffic leaves grit and stones on the lanes. A blowout on the A142, a slow puncture found near the new station car park, or a kerbed wheel on the tighter centre streets can leave you stuck and a fair way from help.
Fast Tyre answers that by coming to you. We reach all of Soham and the Fens around it, from Fountain Lane and Pratt Street out to Mereside and the surrounding villages. Our vans carry the tyres and tools to fit on the spot, at home, at work or at the roadside, 24 hours a day and every day of the year, usually within 30 to 60 minutes of your call.
Soham is strung along the A142 with open Fen on either side, so a damaged tyre often means choosing between a fast single carriageway and crumbling drove roads, with no garage close by. The tighter centre streets around Pratt Street give little safe room to change a wheel, and limping out onto the A142 on a flat is genuinely dangerous. A local mobile fitter who knows the Newmarket road, the station and the Fordham droves comes straight to your location, sparing you the risky drive and getting you back underway.

Called at 10am, the fitter arrived with Bridgestone tyres at 10:45am and was finished by 11:15am. Very reasonably priced and great communication, would definitely use again.
