Letchworth #1334 Free
This is one of the shortest test routes at the Letchworth centre, covering roughly 8 miles in about 25 minutes across a single stage. It runs through Phoenix Park Estate, Jackmans Estate, Lordship Estate, Purwell and Westbury Estate, mixing 30 mph estate streets with 40 mph links and a short 60 mph section. Expect six roundabouts and just four traffic light junctions.
Watch Out For
- Four give way junctions, including a tight cluster of give way lines where minor roads meet.
- The 60 mph stretch, where speed climbs before the estate driving returns.
- Six roundabouts: give way to the right and signal left on exit.
Route Features
- Letchworth Gate and Baldock Road carry the faster moving traffic.
- Broadway and the Jackmans area bring tighter 30 mph residential driving.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left is set near the start point.
Key Tips
- Hold a steady speed between the 30 and 60 zones and watch for parked cars narrowing the estate roads.
