Nottingham (Colwick) #1001 Free
This 10.35 km route takes about 27 minutes through Colwick, Netherfield, Carlton and Gedling at 30 and 40 mph. With only two roundabouts but eight right turns against four left, it is the most right-turn-heavy route at this centre, so judging oncoming gaps is the main theme.
Watch Out For
- A give way junction needing clear observation before pulling out.
- A school area with a reduced limit and possible child pedestrians.
- A 40 mph section near Valley Road.
Route Features
- Eight right turns demanding good timing into oncoming traffic.
- Quiet residential roads around Fraser Square.
- Two roundabouts: give way to the right, signal left on exit.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left near the test centre.
Key Tips
- On right turns, wait for a safe gap rather than rushing.
- Position correctly toward the centre line before turning right.
