Route 1857 covers 5.4 miles in about 22 minutes as a single stage, the quickest of the three routes described at this Newport centre. It links Alway, Ladyhill and Somerton, with 3 roundabouts and limits running from 20 up to 50 mph.

Watch Out For

  • Three roundabouts, more than either other route here, all giving way to the right and signalling left on exit.
  • A 50 mph stretch, the fastest limit on this route, before the 30 mph estate roads.
  • Four give way junctions and 10 sets of traffic lights.
  • A reduced limit and children near the school zone.

Route Features

  • Fourteen marked cycle lane sections, the most of any route here.
  • Quiet estate roads around Aberthaw Road with tight junction spacing.
  • Busier multi lane driving on Chepstow Road.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • Pick your lane early on the approach to each roundabout.
  • Only 10 turns in total, so use the gaps between them to read the speed limit signs.
