Rockdale #2126 Pro
This Rockdale route covers 9.56 km in about 24.4 minutes across two stages, taking in Rockdale, Kogarah, Carlton and Allawah with limits from 40 to 70 km/h. It is the longest of the nine reviewed routes here, and its 15 sets of traffic signals against just 4 roundabouts make it a main road drive rather than a roundabout heavy one.
Watch Out For
- Two stop signs sit close together on the western leg. A full stop is required at the first sign, not a rolling crawl.
- A school zone drops the limit to 40 km/h in school hours.
- A give way point and a marked bike lane need early shoulder checks.
Route Features
- 17 turns, 9 left and 8 right, with 40, 50, 60 and 70 km/h zones posted and 60 km/h dominating.
- Named roads include Princes Highway and Railway Parade.
Test Manoeuvres
- One kerbside stop: mirror, signal, blind spot, then park parallel and close to the kerb.
Key Tips
- At the 4 roundabouts give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- With 15 signal sets, pick your lane before the queue builds.
