This 4.9 mile route takes around 17 minutes and stays close to Wednesbury and Darlaston, taking in Catherine Cross, Woods Bank and Moxley with limits from 20 to 40 mph. Nine sets of traffic lights in under five miles make it a stop start drive, and unlike the longer routes from this centre it never reaches 50 mph roads.

Watch Out For

  • Nine sets of traffic lights, so anticipate the change rather than braking late.
  • Two roundabouts, giving way to the right and signalling left on exit.
  • A give way junction joining a busy main road.
  • Narrow town centre streets such as Ethelfleda Terrace with parked cars on both sides.

Route Features

  • Six signposted turns split evenly, three left and three right.
  • Main road driving on Black Country New Road and Holyhead Road.
  • A short 20 mph section through the Darlaston shopping streets.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • Leave a gap at lights so you can move off smoothly on green.
