Featherstone #2019 Pro
Route 2019 covers 10.2 miles in about 26.5 minutes as a single stage, linking Featherstone with Bushbury, Oxley, Fordhouses, Coven Heath and Cross Green. Limits run from 30 to 60 mph, with 4 roundabouts, 4 sets of traffic lights and 5 left plus 5 right turns. It is one of the longer routes here, yet it has fewer roundabouts than most.
Watch Out For
- Three school areas with reduced limits, including this school zone where children step out between parked cars.
- Two give way lines within a few car lengths, so read the second one early.
Route Features
- Cannock Road carries faster multi lane traffic near Fordhouses.
- Country lanes such as Brewood Road are narrow with no footpath.
- A 60 mph stretch near Coven Heath drops to a lower limit at its end.
Test Manoeuvres
- One pull up on the left on a quiet lane at the Featherstone end.
Key Tips
- Give way to the right at each roundabout and signal left on exit.
- Settle back to 30 mph once the limit sign changes after the fast section.
