Route 1874 from Wednesbury covers 8.9 miles in about 34.3 minutes as a single stage, taking in Wood Green, Darlaston, Fallings Heath, Pleck, Bescot and New Mills, with limits from 20 to 40 mph. It is one of the longest routes here and the longest by time, holding 15 sets of traffic lights and 5 roundabouts.

Watch Out For

  • Six right turns against just two left turns, so most junction work crosses oncoming traffic.
  • Five roundabouts, where you give way to the right and signal left on exit.
  • A pedestrian crossing that may need you to give way.
  • 20 mph sections that need a clear drop from the 40 mph stretches.
