Lichfield #1357 Free
Route 1357 is the shortest test route at the Lichfield centre, covering 11.25 km in about 24 minutes through Darwin Park in a single stage, with limits from 20 up to 70 mph. Despite the short distance it stays busy, with 10 sets of traffic signals and two stop signs, tighter junction pressure than any other route here.
Watch Out For
- Two full stop signs need a complete halt at the line before you pull away.
- Ten sets of traffic lights mean filter arrows and box junctions to read.
- A roundabout where you give way to the right and signal left on exit.
Route Features
- Western By-Pass carries faster moving traffic around the edge of town.
- London Road brings the higher speed section before the return leg.
Test Manoeuvres
- Expect a pull up on the left request near the test centre.
Key Tips
- Set your gear and speed early for the 20 mph zones between quicker stretches.
