Route 1371 is the longest at this centre, 16.66 km in around 38 minutes as one stage, reaching out through Wood Farm, Headington Quarry, Risinghurst, Sandhills, Forest Hill and the village of Stanton St John. Limits run from 20 up to 70 mph, yet it passes just six sets of traffic lights, the fewest of any route here, so the pace stays open.

Watch Out For

  • A school zone with a lower limit and children close to the road.
  • National-speed country lanes near Bayswater Road with bends and no footpaths.
  • Two 50 mph stretches where traffic moves quickly.

Route Features

  • Estate roads such as Wood Farm Road with junctions and parked cars.
  • The faster Eastern By-pass Road carrying through traffic.
  • Ten left and eight right turns across the loop.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • Build speed smoothly on the open lanes but scan for oncoming cars on narrow sections.
  • Plan turns early with so few lights to break the flow.
