Wednesbury #1879 Pro
Route 1879 covers 7.6 miles in about 30 minutes around Hall End, the shortest of the long Wednesbury routes yet not the quickest to complete. Limits are 20, 30 and 40 mph. It carries 18 turns split evenly at nine left and nine right, with 12 sets of traffic lights and three roundabouts, so residential junction work dominates the drive.
Watch Out For
- A school area with a reduced limit, where children may be crossing near the kerb.
- A give way junction that needs a proper look both ways before committing.
- A step up to 40 mph on the southern edge of the route.
Route Features
- Heath Lane and Marsh Lane form the residential grid where most of the turns happen.
- Three roundabouts, give way to the right and signal left on exit.
Test Manoeuvres
- Pull up on the left is set on the residential roads by the test centre.
Key Tips
- Junctions arrive every few hundred metres, so begin observation before each one.
