Goodmayes (London) #1609 Free
Route 1609 covers 8.12 km in about 26 minutes as a single stage through Seven Kings, Redbridge, and Newbury Park, with limits of 20, 30, and 40 mph. It passes the most school zones of any route at this centre, eight in total, so reduced limits and children near the road are a recurring theme.
Watch Out For
- Eight school areas with lowered limits and pedestrians, such as this school zone.
- Two stop signs needing a full halt, including this stop line.
- Twelve sets of traffic lights across the loop.
Route Features
- A 40 mph stretch along Eastern Avenue.
- A roundabout at this junction, where you give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- Seven left and four right turns, so left turns dominate.
Test Manoeuvres
- Expect a pull up on the left before returning to the flow.
Key Tips
- Cover the brake through each school zone and watch for crossing children.
- Signal left on exit at the roundabout so others can read your intent.
