Telford #1633 Free
This 16.88 km route runs about 25 minutes through Apley, Leegomery, Hadley Castle and Trench Lock, working across a 30 to 60 mph range. With 19 sets of traffic lights it is one of the most signal-heavy drives at the Telford centre, so junction discipline matters more than speed here.
Watch Out For
The long list of lights means frequent stop-start driving; keep a safe gap and watch filter arrows. Speed limits step up to 50 mph on the faster links, so check signs rather than following the car ahead.
Route Features
You leave the Hortonwood estate onto New Trench Road, then work west past Hadley Park Road and Wrockwardine Wood Way. A 50 mph stretch tests smooth acceleration and lane choice.
Test Manoeuvres
Be ready to pull up on the left and move off again.
Key Tips
Only three roundabouts feature, so save your focus for the signals and the changing limits.
