Cheetham Hill (Manchester) #1780 Pro
Route 1780 covers 6.1 miles in about 30.2 minutes through Charlestown and Lower Broughton at 20 and 30 mph. Its 14 right turns are more than any other route at this test centre, and with 11 left turns as well the drive packs 25 changes of direction into a single stage. There are 10 sets of traffic lights and no roundabouts.
Watch Out For
- Fourteen right turns, each needing correct positioning and a safe gap in oncoming traffic.
- A give way junction judged without any signal to help.
- A pedestrian crossing near the test centre.
Route Features
- Great Clowes Street links the residential sections and carries steady through traffic.
- Lower Broughton Road runs past parked cars with limited forward view at side turnings.
Test Manoeuvres
- You will be asked to pull up on the left, finishing close and parallel to the kerb.
Key Tips
- Over 30 minutes for six miles shows slow residential traffic, so hold back and wait for real gaps.
