Macclesfield #2101 Pro
The longest drive by time at this office, 9.9 miles over about 39 minutes in one stage. It covers Bollin Meadow, Ivy Meade, The Pavillions, Broken Cross, Jasmine Park and Greenside, with limits of 30, 40 and 60 mph. It also has the most turns of any route here, 29 in total, including 16 to the right, plus 6 roundabouts and 10 sets of traffic lights.
Watch Out For
- Sixteen right turns, so oncoming traffic has to be judged again and again.
- A give way junction where the lanes meet a faster road.
- Six roundabouts, give way to the right and signal left as you exit.
Route Features
- Chestergate brings tight 30 mph town streets with frequent junctions.
- Whirley Road and Birtles Lane are rural, with bends, hedges and a 60 mph limit.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left back near the test centre.
Key Tips
- With 29 turns, listen carefully to each instruction and start mirror checks early.
- On the rural lanes match your speed to what you can see, not to the 60 mph sign.
