Route 1809 covers 6.1 miles in roughly 31 minutes as a single stage, working through St Stephens, St Julians and Chiswell Green, with limits from 20 to 70 mph. Its five roundabouts match the highest count of any route at this St Albans office, and 15 sets of traffic signals are packed into that comparatively short distance.

Watch Out For

  • Eight right turns against only four lefts, so most junctions need you to cross oncoming traffic.
  • Six give way junctions, including a tight give way where side roads meet in quick succession.
  • The 70 mph section on North Orbital Road, where you join and leave at speed.

Route Features

  • Historic city streets on Holywell Hill feed into residential roads around Chiswell Green.
  • Five roundabouts: give way to the right and signal left as you leave.

Key Tips

  • With 15 signal sets, read the lights early and pick your lane before the stop line.
