Wednesbury #1864 Free
At 4.3 miles and about 15 minutes this is one of the shorter tests from Wednesbury, covering Wood Green, Darlaston and Fallings Heath at 20 and 30 mph. It packs six roundabouts into that distance, more than some routes here nearly twice as long, so junction work matters more than speed.
Watch Out For
- Six roundabouts in a short loop, giving way to the right and signalling left as you leave.
- Six sets of traffic lights, several of them close together.
- A pedestrian crossing where people step out between queuing cars.
- A give way junction onto a busier main road.
Route Features
- Only three signposted turns, two left and one right, so lane choice does most of the work.
- Industrial estate traffic on Axletree Way, including lorries pulling out.
- No 40 mph roads at all, the whole route sits at 20 and 30 mph.
Test Manoeuvres
- Pull up on the left a short distance from the test centre.
Key Tips
- Choose your lane before each roundabout entry and hold it all the way round.
