Grantham (Somerby) #1144 Free
Route 1144 covers 16.04 km in about 30 minutes through Cold Harbour, Harrowby and Alma Park, with limits from 20 mph to 60 mph. It has no roundabouts but packs in 18 turns and seven give way junctions, the most turn heavy loop in this batch, so steering and observation are tested non stop.
Watch Out For
- Seven give way junctions, including a cluster near High Dike.
- Nine sets of traffic signals through town.
- Narrow one way style streets around Elmer Street North and Guildhall Street.
Route Features
- Nine left turns and nine right turns, an evenly balanced but busy loop.
- The 20 mph zone, the lowest limit on this route, in the town core.
- Estate roads through Alma Park Road and Hill Avenue.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left is set at High Dike.
Key Tips
- Signal early and keep speed low through the dense street network.
- Treat each give way as a full check, not a roll through.
