At 16.27 km over about 34 minutes in a single stage, this is the longest route at the Bury St Edmunds test centre. It reaches east to The Battlies near Blackthorpe before working back through town, with limits ranging from 20mph up to 70mph and 9 roundabouts to clear. It also carries seven School Zone 40 markers, more school activity than most routes here.

Watch Out For

  • Three give way points, including the pair on Compiegne Way, where you must wait for gaps before pulling out.
  • Seven school areas with reduced limits and children near Angel Hill.
  • The single 50mph stretch on Orttewell Road where the limit climbs quickly.

Route Features

  • 9 roundabouts: give way to the right and signal left as you leave.
  • 10 turns, weighted to the right (7 right, 3 left).
  • 5 sets of traffic signals through the town core.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • The long eastern leg to The Battlies means committing to the 70mph national speed limit road, then settling back for the 30mph town return.
  • Read the cycle lane on Bike Lane before changing lanes.
