Speke (Liverpool) #1599 Free
At 14.73 km and about 27 minutes, this is one of the two longer routes from this centre and one of only two that reach 60 mph. It crosses Speke and Hale across a single stage, with 7 roundabouts, the second highest count here, and 11 sets of traffic signals. From Speke Road it heads out along Speke Boulevard before returning through Hale Road.
Watch Out For
- Seven roundabouts where you give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- A give way junction that needs early observation.
- 60 mph sections where speed must build and settle safely.
Route Features
- Eleven signalled junctions spread across the stage.
- Two marked school areas with reduced limits and children about.
- Eleven left turns, well above the three right turns.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left near the test centre.
Key Tips
- Read each roundabout lane and exit early.
- Adjust smoothly between 30, 40 and 60 mph limits.
