Northwich #1192 Free
This single-stage route covers 18.03 km in about 31 minutes, running through Greenbank, Hartford, Weaverham, Gorstage and Castle. Speed limits range from 20 to 70 mph, the widest spread of any route at this Northwich test centre. With only one roundabout and three sets of traffic signals, it is far calmer than the busier town routes here, but it does pass four separate school zones.
Watch Out For
- Four school zones with reduced limits and children nearby, so ease off and watch the kerbs.
- Three give way junctions where you must yield to traffic on the main road.
- National speed sections up to 70 mph that demand confident lane discipline.
Route Features
- One roundabout where you give way to the right and signal left on exit, near the roundabout.
- A mix of 20, 30, 40, 60 and 70 mph zones, including the open Weaverham Bypass.
- Seven left and six right turns spread across residential and faster roads.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left near the start area off Moss Road.
Key Tips
- Adjust your speed early as you enter the school zone.
- Plan your gear and position before joining the higher speed bypass.
