At 21.2 minutes this is the quickest route from this centre, and at 10.36 km it ties for the shortest as well, covering Garston and Cressington in a single stage. Even so it holds 18 sets of traffic signals, among the busiest here, plus 2 roundabouts. Limits run from 5 to 40 mph as it loops from Speke Road through Garston Way and up toward Whitehedge Road.

Watch Out For

  • Eighteen signalled junctions packed into a short loop.
  • Four marked school areas, including one school zone with children about.
  • A short 10 mph shared section needing very low speed.

Route Features

  • Two roundabouts, giving way to the right and signalling left on exit.
  • An even split of eight left and eight right turns.
  • Four marked cycle lanes to check before turning.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • Keep progress smooth despite the closely spaced signals.
  • Drop right down for the 10 mph shared zone.
