This 13.31 km route runs about 26.4 minutes through Pocket Nook, Green Bank, Newtown, Eccleston, Windle and Gerard's Bridge. With six roundabouts it has the most of any route at this test centre, so roundabout positioning and lane discipline define the drive. Limits run from 20 mph in school areas up to 60 mph on the open sections, with just 10 sets of signals.

Watch Out For

  • Six roundabouts, the highest count here, each giving way to the right and signalling left on exit.
  • Two school zones near College Street with a reduced limit and children present.
  • The change from 60 mph open road back to lower village limits.

Route Features

  • A 13.31 km loop reaching west to Eccleston and Windle.
  • Speeds across 20, 30, 40 and 60 mph, balanced 4 left and 4 right turns.
  • Roads including St Luke's Road and Alder Hey Road.

Test Manoeuvres

  • A pull up on the left near Pocket Nook, signalling and stopping close to the kerb.

Key Tips

  • Choose your exit lane and signal early on every roundabout.
  • Slow in good time as the 60 mph road drops to village limits.
