Route 1733 is an 11.28 km single-stage drive of about 29 minutes around Acocks Green and Coventry Road. It is one of only a few routes at this centre that climbs to a 40 mph limit, with the rest of the run set at 20 to 30 mph. It keeps just two roundabouts but adds five sets of traffic lights.

Watch Out For

  • The step up to a 40 mph stretch where speed must be judged well.
  • A school area with a reduced limit and children about.
  • A give way that needs a clear look before pulling out.

Route Features

  • Two roundabouts, give way to the right and signal left on exit.
  • A longer run along Yardley Road.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips
