At 28.84 km and about 64 minutes, this is the longest route at the Poole test centre, running over one stage through Stanley Green, Oakdale, Longfleet, Parkstone, Lilliput and Canford Cliffs. Speeds range from 30 to 50 mph. It carries 31 traffic signals, among the busiest here, plus three pedestrian crossings and a stop sign, so junction reading and traffic light timing are constant work.

Watch Out For

  • A stop sign that needs a full stop with the car stationary before you move off.
  • Three pedestrian crossings, including one near a busy junction.
  • Six bike lanes shared with cyclists, mirror check before any move left.
