At 27 km and 55 minutes, this is by far the longest route from Mitcham VicRoads, covering Mitcham, Ringwood, Vermont, and Heathmont in a single stage. With 11 school zones, 36 give way junctions, and 21 stop signs, it demands sustained concentration. The strong right-turn bias (24 left, 32 right) means extensive gap selection through oncoming traffic.

Watch Out For

  • 11 school zones. The most of any route at this centre. Zones appear near Canterbury Road, Beddoe Road area, and Balfour Avenue. 40 km/h during school hours for each.
  • Canterbury Road (80 km/h). Extended high-speed section. Build speed to near the limit and maintain lane position. Do not drift.
  • 36 give way junctions. By far the most at this centre. You will encounter one every 750 metres on average. Give way to the right at every uncontrolled intersection.
  • 21 stop signs. Especially dense in the residential streets east of Heatherdale Road. Complete stop required at each one.
  • Boronia Road section. Speed transitions between 60 and 80 km/h on the western loop. Watch for signs after each intersection.

Route Features

  • 24 left turns, 32 right turns, 2 roundabouts, 6 sets of traffic lights.
  • 27 km in a single stage. The longest route at this centre by a wide margin (next longest is 11 km).
  • 56 turns total (24 left, 32 right). Strong right-turn bias.
  • 6 traffic signals, mostly on major roads.
  • 2 roundabouts near Denis Street.
  • Speed range: 40-80 km/h. Extended 60 and 80 km/h sections on arterial roads.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • This route tests endurance. At 55 minutes, fatigue and loss of concentration are real risks. Stay hydrated before the test.
  • With 32 right turns, practise gap selection in 60-80 km/h traffic. Hesitating too long is as much a fault as pulling out too early.
  • The 11 school zones are the route"s biggest trap. Some are close together. Always check the electronic sign, even if you think school is out.
