Stoke-On-Trent (Cobridge) #2027 Free
At 7.4 miles and about 24 minutes this is the quickest route from this office to complete, run in a single stage through Shelton, Newcastle-under-Lyme and Longport. Limits are 30 and 50 mph, so it mixes town streets with faster link roads and keeps only 11 sets of traffic lights, fewer than most routes here.
Watch Out For
- Six roundabouts on a short route, so entries come up quickly after each other.
- Changes between 30 and 50 mph limits along the link roads.
- A marked cycle lane and only four turns, three of them right across traffic.
Route Features
- Faster 50 mph running on Queensway.
- Valley descent and climb on Etruria Vale Road.
- Steady town driving on Cobridge Road and Newcastle Street.
Test Manoeuvres
- Pull up on the left near the end of the route.
Key Tips
- Give way to the right at roundabouts and signal left before the exit.
- Watch the speed drop back to 30 mph as you leave the 50 mph sections.
