Wellingborough #1684 Pro
One of the shortest tests here at 12.3 km and about 31 minutes, this single-stage route stays close to Spencer and Hunsbury Hill across 20 to 50 mph limits. Despite the short distance it still packs in 14 roundabouts and 14 sets of traffic lights, making it a busy drive from the start.
Watch Out For
- 14 roundabouts, give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- 14 sets of traffic lights over a compact route.
- Twice as many left turns as right, 6 against 3.
Route Features
- Towcester Road and Rothersthorpe Road serve the southern estates.
- Weedon Road and Spencer Bridge Road handle the busier town traffic.
Test Manoeuvres
- Expect to pull up on the left near the centre.
Key Tips
- Stay on top of frequent junctions despite the short overall length.
- Set up early for the run of left turns.
