Letchworth #1355 Pro
At about 8.8 miles and 28 minutes over one stage, this is one of the shorter routes at the Letchworth centre, with only five roundabouts. It covers Phoenix Park Estate, Jackmans Estate, Lordship Estate and Westbury Estate, with limits from 30 to 60 mph. There are ten traffic light junctions and a fairly even split of seven left and five right turns.
Watch Out For
- A give way junction on the estate approach where you assess gaps carefully.
- Ten sets of traffic lights, more than the five roundabouts here.
- Parked cars narrowing the 30 mph residential roads.
Route Features
- Baldock Road and Icknield Way carry the busier through traffic.
- Howard Drive and the estate streets bring steady 30 mph driving.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left near the start point.
Key Tips
- Give yourself time at the give way and read the lights early to keep a smooth pace.
