At 14.23 km this single-stage route is the shortest of this group, yet it fills around 34.7 minutes because of dense town driving off Bath Road and Orchard Crescent, with limits from 30 to 70 mph. It carries three stop signs, the joint most of the routes covered here, plus a pedestrian crossing, so low-speed control is tested hard.

Watch Out For

  • Three stop signs, including one needing a full stop behind the line.
  • A pedestrian crossing where you must be ready to give way.
  • A school area with a reduced limit and children about.

Route Features

  • Three roundabouts, give way to the right and signal left on exit.
  • A 70 mph open stretch balanced against tight 30 mph town streets.
  • Roads include Sheldon Road and Canterbury Street.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • Come to a genuine full stop at each stop line, wheels still, before moving off.
  • Cover the brake near the crossing and the school area in case you must give way.
