Bletchley #1426 Free
This 16.77 km, 28.3-minute route leaves Bletchley through Whaddon Road to Newton Longville, Snelshall West and East, Emerson Valley and Old Bletchley, all in one stage. Speeds run from 30mph up to national limit 60mph and 70mph, with just one roundabout, the fewest of any route at this office, and no traffic signals at all, making it the most rural route in the Bletchley set.
Watch Out For
- Fast 60mph and 70mph stretches raise closing speed at bends and at the single give way junction.
- No signals to pace the drive, so junction observation on entry to each village matters more.
Route Features
- Covers six areas: Bletchley, Newton Longville, Snelshall West, Snelshall East, Emerson Valley and Old Bletchley.
- Includes fast grid roads such as H7 Chaffron Way and V1 Snelshall Street.
- Just one roundabout, the fewest of any route here.
Test Manoeuvres
- Pull up on the left is practised near the test centre area.
Key Tips
- Build confidence at 60mph and 70mph before the test, this route spends more time there than most.
- Rehearse the one give way junction until priority checks are automatic.
