St Albans #1823 Pro
Route 1823 covers 7.5 miles in about 31 minutes as a single stage through Fleetville, The Camp and London Colney. Limits run from 20 mph up to 70 mph, with a signed 40 mph section on the southern leg. Sixteen sets of traffic lights make this one of the busier routes for signals at the St Albans test centre, while the turn count stays low at 10.
Watch Out For
- Three marked cycle lane sections where you share road width with riders.
- One roundabout, giving way to the right and signalling left on exit.
- A give way junction on the London Colney side of the loop.
- The school area, where the limit drops and children are about.
Route Features
- Camp Road and Cell Barnes Lane carry the 30 mph residential middle.
- Napsbury Lane links the southern estates back towards the city.
- Just 10 turns in total, 6 left and 4 right.
Test Manoeuvres
- Pull up on the left, near the test centre.
Key Tips
- Check the nearside cycle lane before every left turn.
- Drop to 40 mph as soon as the signs appear on the fast section.
