Worksop #1709 Free
This 17.84 km single-stage route runs about 33 minutes through Shireoaks Common and Rhodesia, the only route from this centre to cover Rhodesia. Limits run from 30 up to 70 mph, and with just four sets of traffic lights it is one of the quietest routes here for signals, second only to the three-signal run.
Watch Out For
- Only four sets of traffic lights, so pace comes from the open roads.
- Five roundabouts, giving way to the right and signalling left on exit.
- A 40 mph section where the limit steps down on the approach.
Route Features
- Six right and four left turns between estates and through roads.
- Kilton Road and Plantation Hill run the eastern loop.
- Shireoaks Road carries the return toward the test centre.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left is set near Shireoaks.
Key Tips
- Hold a steady speed on the faster sections and read the roundabouts early.
- Ease down smoothly for the 40 mph change and keep checking mirrors.
