Burton on Trent #1187 Pro
A 16.97 km route covered in only about 24 minutes through Horninglow and Stretton, with speeds reaching 70 mph. It is one of the quicker-flowing routes here, using just three left and one right turn so most distance is straight, faster running rather than tight junction work.
Watch Out For
- A 60 mph stretch near Branston Road that needs early speed judgement.
- Eight roundabouts including one near the town junctions, give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- A 10 mph slow point and three give way junctions.
Route Features
- Fast sections out to James Brindley Way with eleven 40 mph waypoints.
- Few turns, so lane discipline and speed control dominate.
- Two pedestrian crossings and bike lanes to share in the town parts.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left near the test centre.
Key Tips
- Make steady progress at the higher limits without hesitating.
- Plan each speed change between the 70, 40 and 30 mph sections.
