Tolworth (London) #1062 Free
This 18.47 km single-stage route runs about 43 minutes through Tolworth, Long Ditton, Hook and Hinchley Wood, covering speed limits from 20mph up to 50mph on the Kingston Bypass. It has 5 roundabouts, the most of any route at this office, plus 18 sets of traffic signals.
Watch Out For
- Four School Zone 40 areas with reduced limits and children near the kerb, including the cluster along Hook Road.
- Three give way junctions where you must yield before pulling out.
- A 50mph stretch on the bypass that drops back to lower limits at the exits.
Route Features
- Five roundabouts: give way to traffic from the right and signal left as you leave.
- Bike lanes along Clayton Road, so check mirrors and blind spots before moving across.
- A mix of 40mph and 50mph dual-carriageway driving plus quiet residential streets.
Test Manoeuvres
- Expect a pull up on the left near the test centre, controlling the car smoothly back into the flow.
Key Tips
- Plan early lane choice before each roundabout to avoid late corrections.
- Hold the correct speed for each zone, the limit changes often along this route.
