Redditch #1760 Free
This 17.74 km route takes about 29 minutes over a single stage, covering Batchley, Foxlydiate, Walkwood, Southcrest, Headless Cross and Lodge Park. Speeds range from 30 to 70 mph. It is one of only two routes at this centre that passes a marked school zone, and it has no traffic lights, so the 9 roundabouts and the school area are the main hazards.
Watch Out For
- A school zone with a reduced limit and children who may be crossing.
- 9 roundabouts where you give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- No traffic lights, so you set the timing at every junction.
Route Features
- Runs west along Bromsgrove Highway toward Foxlydiate.
- Uses Redditch Ringway closer to the town.
- 7 right turns, more than the 4 lefts.
Test Manoeuvres
- Expect a pull up on the left on a quieter street.
Key Tips
- Slow early for the school area and watch the pavements for children.
- Plan each roundabout exit since no lights control the flow.
