One of the longer test routes from the Burton on Trent DVSA centre, covering about 18.33 km in roughly 30 minutes through Horninglow and Stretton. Speed limits range from 30 up to 70 mph, so unlike most of the shorter town routes here it puts you onto higher speed roads. It has 6 roundabouts, 10 sets of traffic signals, and no school zones.

Watch Out For

  • The 70 mph national speed limit section, where you build speed safely and keep good observation. Only the rural routes here reach this limit.
  • Four give way junctions where you yield before pulling out.
  • Two pedestrian crossings near the town centre.

Route Features

  • Six roundabouts. Give way to your right and signal left as you leave.
  • Starts on Wellington Road, then runs along Calais Road and Derby Road through residential and arterial streets.
  • Five bike lane markings, so check mirrors and blind spots before moving across.

Test Manoeuvres

  • Be ready for a pull up on the left, stopping safely at the kerb and moving off with good observation.

Key Tips

  • Adjust your speed promptly as the limit changes between 30, 40, 60 and 70 mph.
  • On faster roads, leave a larger following gap and plan roundabout exits early.
