Route 1645 runs 15.47 km in about 26 minutes as a single stage, linking Hadley Castle, Hadley, Oakengates, Donnington and Trench with limits of 30, 40 and 50 mph. It has just one roundabout, making it one of the calmest routes at the Telford centre for junction complexity, though 11 sets of traffic signals keep the pace stop-start.

Watch Out For

  • 11 traffic-light junctions that call for smooth stops and good anticipation.
  • A cycle lane where you must check the nearside before moving in or turning left.
  • Several 40 and 50 mph changes that need early speed adjustment.

Route Features

  • A run along Holyhead Road through the older Oakengates streets.
  • A section on St Georges Road near Donnington.
  • A single roundabout where you give way to the right and signal left on exit.
