Greenham #1967 Free
Route 1967 covers 12.5 miles in about 37 minutes as a single stage through Bishop's Green and Newtown, with limits from 20 to 50 mph. Its eighteen sets of traffic lights are the joint highest at this office, and the pace stays low because so much of the drive sits in town.
Watch Out For
- Eighteen signalled junctions, several close enough together for queues to build back.
- Eleven bike lane stretches, more than any other route here, so keep checking the nearside.
- Nine school areas with a reduced limit and children near the kerb.
- Three give way junctions, including one on the northern industrial roads.
Route Features
- Ten roundabouts, giving way to the right and signalling left on exit.
- Commercial and town driving on Hambridge Road and Greenham Road.
- A pedestrian crossing on the approach into town.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left is set near the test centre, so mirror, signal and slow early.
Key Tips
- With lights this frequent, keep a gap so an amber can be stopped for smoothly.
- Seven left turns and six right turns are spread fairly evenly.
