This 16.39 km route is the longest of these three Chippenham drives, finishing in about 32 minutes over a single stage out toward Lackham. It uses the widest speed spread here, from 25 up to 70 mph, and runs from West Cepen Way up past Malmesbury Road. It is the only one of the three with no stop sign, but it carries 14 give-way junctions, the most of the trio.

Watch Out For

  • 14 give-way junctions where you must judge gaps and yield without a forced halt.
  • A school area with a reduced limit and children near the road.
  • A short 10 mph restriction on the test centre approach.

Route Features

  • 3 roundabouts, giving way to the right and signalling left on exit.
  • Only 9 sets of traffic signals, the fewest of the three routes.
  • A 70 mph section once out on the open road past Langley Road.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • With 14 give-way junctions, scan early and keep good speed control.
  • Match the higher limits where safe but ease back for the school zone.
