Clacton-on-Sea #1831 Pro
A 7.0 mile loop of about 24.7 minutes in one stage, staying entirely within 30 mph limits. It covers the town grid and seafront around Pier Avenue, High Street and Tower Road, then runs east towards Kings Parade. It is one of only two routes at this centre with no higher limit anywhere, so the difficulty comes from junction density rather than speed.
Watch Out For
- Two stop signs, both needing a complete halt before the line.
- Twelve give way junctions, the busiest part of the drive.
- Six pedestrian crossings and five bike lane sections.
Route Features
- Two roundabouts and two sets of traffic lights.
- Four right turns against two left turns.
- Six marked school areas with reduced limits and children about.
Test Manoeuvres
- Pull up on the left on a residential road near the centre.
Key Tips
- Hold 30 mph steadily, since no section of this route allows more.
- At roundabouts give way to the right and signal left on the exit.
