Folkestone #1310 Free
Route 1310 is the longest test at Folkestone, covering 19.61 km in about 32 minutes through Morehall, Broadmead, Park Farm, Hawkinge, Capel-le-Ferne and East Cliff. Speeds climb through 30, 40, 60 and 70 mph as it reaches the cliffs at Capel-le-Ferne, so stamina and steady speed control matter. It has 10 roundabouts, 5 sets of traffic lights and twelve turns across a single stage.
Watch Out For
- Ten roundabouts, each needing early lane choice and a left signal on exit.
- Higher-speed rural sections up to 70 mph with changing limits.
- Four reduced-limit school zones and one give-way junction.
Route Features
- Town driving on Canterbury Road and Dover Road.
- Harbour and cliff views near Harbour Street and Hill Road.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left is expected.
Key Tips
- Pace yourself over the distance and adjust speed early on the faster cliff roads.
