An 8.6 mile route of about 31 minutes in one stage, reaching Pinefields, Broomfield, Hawthorn Corner, Beltinge, Oxenden and Hampton. It is one of only four routes at this office that use the full 20 to 70 mph range, and its turns are evenly split at 6 left and 6 right, with 6 roundabouts and 3 sets of traffic lights.

Watch Out For

  • A marked cycle lane runs beside the carriageway east of town, so check over your shoulder before crossing.
  • A give way junction opens onto faster traffic, where closing speed matters more than gap length.
  • Town centre traffic on High Street, with pedestrians stepping out between parked cars.

Route Features

  • Six roundabouts. Give way to the right and signal left on exit.
  • Seafront running along Western Esplanade, where crosswinds and parking vehicles interrupt the flow.
  • Three give way junctions and a 40 mph section on the return leg.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips
