Herne Bay #2080 Pro
This single-stage route covers 7.3 miles in nearly 33 minutes through Pinefields, Broomfield, Hunter's Forstal, Herne and Lower Herne, with limits from 20 to 40 mph. That is the slowest average pace of any route at this office, a sign of how much of it is town driving, and it still fits in 7 roundabouts, 4 sets of traffic lights and 15 turns.
Watch Out For
- Ten of the 15 turns are right turns, so you will wait across oncoming traffic repeatedly.
- A pedestrian crossing sits close to the seafront where people cross in groups.
- The school zone has a reduced limit and children near the kerb.
Route Features
- Seven roundabouts. Give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- Residential turns off Eddington Lane with limited forward view.
- Busy shopping traffic along Sea Street.
Test Manoeuvres
- Pull up on the left at this kerbside point, signalling before you slow.
Key Tips
- Four sets of lights mean junctions in queues, so leave a tyres and tarmac gap.
