This 7.0 mile route runs for about 28 minutes in a single stage, working east from Cheetham Hill into Collyhurst and Miles Platting. Limits stay between 20 mph and 30 mph the whole way, but with 22 sets of traffic lights it is one of the busiest routes for signals at this centre. No roundabouts appear, so the workload comes from 21 turns, twelve of them to the right.

Watch Out For

  • A school area with a reduced limit and children crossing near the kerb.
  • A second school zone on the same stretch, plus a pedestrian crossing close to the test centre.
  • Right turns across oncoming traffic on Rochdale Road.

Route Features

  • Terraced streets around Collyhurst Road where parked cars narrow the road.
  • One marked bike lane and a longer run out to Monsall Road.
  • Nine left turns balancing the twelve rights.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • With 22 signal junctions, read the lights early and stop behind the line instead of creeping forward.
