Blacktown #195 Free
An 11.7 km, single-stage route through Blacktown, Seven Hills and Lalor Park. This is the most demanding Blacktown route by far: 11 stop signs, 8 school zones, 14 give way intersections, 9 roundabouts and 17 traffic signals. The sheer density of intersection controls makes this route uniquely challenging. Speed limits range from 50 to 70 km/h.
Watch Out For
- 11 stop signs. The most of any Blacktown route. Concentrated around Saint Martins Crescent, the Lalor Park area and surrounding streets. Each requires a complete stop.
- 8 school zones. The most of any Blacktown route. 40 km/h during school hours. Scattered across Seven Hills and Lalor Park.
- 14 give way intersections. The most of any Blacktown route. Stay alert at every junction.
- 9 roundabouts. Second only to Route #101. Combined with the stop signs and give ways, almost every intersection demands action.
- Multiple 40 km/h zones. 9 separate 40 km/h areas near residential streets, in addition to the school zones.
