Lichfield #1359 Pro
Route 1359 is the longest test route at the Lichfield centre at 22.78 km, running about 38 minutes across one stage through Streethay, Fradley South and Boley Park, with limits from 20 to 70 mph. It also carries the most traffic signals of any route here, 13 sets, alongside nine roundabouts, so junction reading never lets up.
Watch Out For
- Thirteen sets of traffic lights, the busiest signal count at this centre.
- Nine roundabouts, giving way to the right and signalling left on exit.
- A school area with a reduced limit where children may be crossing.
Route Features
- Wood End Lane takes the route far east into faster country roads.
- Western By-Pass returns you toward town at higher speed.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left is likely near the test centre.
Key Tips
- Pace your concentration; this is a long drive with two give way junctions to plan.
