Burton on Trent #1184 Pro
At 19.16 km and about 31 minutes this is the longest route in this group, running out to Barton-under-Needwood and Tatenhill. It reaches an 80 mph limit, one of only three routes here to do so, with the full range from 30 to 80 mph. The length comes from extended rural driving through 7 roundabouts and just 7 sets of traffic lights, plus village streets.
Watch Out For
- High-speed open carriageway where lane and speed discipline are judged.
- Two give way junctions near Station Road.
- Tight village lanes such as Arden Road.
Route Features
- 7 roundabouts: give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- Long 60 mph rural running on Lichfield Road.
- Narrow turns around The Green.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left near the test centre.
Key Tips
- Adjust speed smoothly when limits drop for villages.
- Take the narrow lanes slowly and watch for oncoming traffic.
