Folkestone #1316 Pro
Route 1316 is one of the shortest tests at Folkestone, 8.95 km in about 23 minutes, staying within Shorncliffe Heights and Coolinge at 20 to 30 mph. It ties route 1305 as the shortest here and for the most school zones, seven, so slow residential driving defines it. There are 3 roundabouts, 5 sets of traffic lights and ten turns, and it includes one of the few stop signs at this office.
Watch Out For
- A full stop is required at a stop sign, rare in the Folkestone set.
- Seven reduced-limit school zones bring children near the kerb.
- Four bike lanes need mirror and blind-spot checks before turning.
Route Features
- Town-centre driving around Middelburg Square and turns off Earls Avenue.
- A quieter stretch on Military Road, with three roundabouts and one give way.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left is expected.
Key Tips
- Keep speeds low through every school zone and be ready for a full stop.
