Brentwood (London) #1665 Free
This 16.09 km route runs about 31 minutes through The Galleries, Harold Wood and Havering, climbing from 20 mph residential streets up to 70 mph on the faster stretches. It shares the highest traffic light count at this office, with 18 sets of signals to read, matching route 1657 as the busiest here for junction work.
Watch Out For
- Eighteen sets of traffic lights, more than any other route bar one, so plan your approach and lane choice early.
- A school zone where the limit drops and children may be crossing.
- A 50 mph stretch that needs firm speed control, with slower town driving on Brook Street.
Route Features
- One roundabout, where you give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- A bike lane to check before moving left.
- Wide speed range from Warley Hill to open 70 mph road.
Test Manoeuvres
- Expect a pull up on the left near the test centre.
Key Tips
- Balanced turns, four left and four right, so keep observations even at every junction.
