This 8.2 mile route takes about 26.1 minutes in a single stage, heading north out of town through Little Clacton by way of Gorse Lane and The Street, then returning along Holland Road. Limits move between 30 mph, 40 mph and 60 mph. It is one of only two routes at this centre with no traffic lights at all, so every priority decision falls to give way lines and roundabouts.

Watch Out For

  • Seventeen give way junctions, a heavy count for the distance.
  • A stop sign that needs the car fully stopped before the line.
  • Six marked school areas with reduced limits and children nearby.

Route Features

  • Five roundabouts, each give way to the right and signal left on exit.
  • Ten left turns against only three right turns.
  • Six pedestrian crossings and five bike lane sections.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • Signal early for the repeated left turns and check the nearside mirror each time.
  • Ease off well before the 60 mph section drops back to 30 mph.
