Reading #2121 Pro
Route 2121 is 5.6 miles and about 26.2 minutes in one stage, working through Whitley and Whitley Wood without leaving the built up area. Limits stay between 20 and 40 mph, yet the drive still packs in 10 roundabouts, 13 sets of traffic lights and 15 marked turns. Few routes at this office fit that much junction work into so short a distance.
Watch Out For
- Eight left and seven right turns, so observation resets every few hundred metres.
- A pedestrian crossing where you must be ready to give way.
- Three give way junctions at the ends of narrow residential streets.
Route Features
- Basingstoke Road is the signal controlled spine of the route.
- Whitley Wood Road brings parked cars and side road emerges.
- Northumberland Avenue adds bus traffic and frequent junctions.
Test Manoeuvres
- Expect a pull up on the left near the test centre end.
Key Tips
- Give way to the right on all 10 roundabouts and signal left as you leave.
- With 15 turns in 5.6 miles, settle lane position early, not at the give way line.
