3650.0. "Directions to Manchester D.M.V." by IFDL::PELLAND () Wed Feb 19 1997 14:20

    
    
    Can someone provide directions to the Department of Motor Vehicles
    in Manchester, please?  I'll be heading to Manchester from Litchfield,
    Route 3A.
    
    Thanks in advance,
    Chris

    By DMV I am guessing you mean the office where you get the plates
    and/or stickers rather than the office on ELM Street where you get the
    registration portion done.
    
    3A Litchfield,  past Shorty's Mexican Restaurant on the right, turns 
    into Brown Ave in Manchester, where there is an Evan's Mart on the 
    right, then KIRK's Restaurant and a Motel 6 or 8 or 9 or whatever, 
    then a McDonald's.
    
    From here there are two main routes.
    
    1.  After all the above landmarks on Brown Ave, there are two quick
    sets of lights, the first set is at the on-ramp to 293 towards
    Boston/Portsmouth, then pass under the highway and the second set of
    lights is a left onto 293 towards Manchester.  Take this left, go over
    the Merrimack River, bear RIGHT after the river.  First exit is Exit 4
    for Queen City Bridge, second exit is Exit 5 for Granite Street Bridge.
    Take this exit.  Turn RIGHT at the end of the exit, go over Merrimack
    River. Go through one set of lights. At the second set of lights, turn
    LEFT.  You'll see the city bus terminal on your right as you turn LEFT 
    onto CANAL Street.  Go down Canal Street through a few sets of lights
    down to DOW Street.  Turn RIGHT onto DOW Street and a quick left into
    the GOLD'S GYM parking lot, the DMV is at the end of this building.
    
    2.  From Brown Ave, instead of turning onto 293, go straight.  You'll
    pass a large cemetery on the left.  Eventually you come to a Stop sign.
    Turn LEFT.  About a block up turn RIGHT onto ELM Street (it may
    actually be South Elm Street at this point).  Go down Elm Street
    through many sets of lights. You'll pass the Center Of New
    Hampshire/Holiday Inn on your left.  Then a tall, black building and
    the somewhat new Nynex building on the left.  Go up a little further
    and pass by Bridge Street (Salty Dog Tavern is on your right).  A few
    more streets up and turn LEFT onto DOW Street.  Go down Dow Street and
    the Gold's Gym parking lot is near the bottom of the hill on your
    right.

When going north on 3a, Shorty's is on the left, 
not the right...

    duh, I knew that...   8^)  I must've been thinking of my *other* right.
    
    
    .2 is correct.
