Greenock #2143 Pro
At 9.1 miles and roughly 35 minutes, this is the longest route at the Greenock test centre and the longest by time. It runs as a single stage through Greenock West, Central, Gateside and Fort Matilda, at limits of 20 and 30 mph. Its 23 turns, 16 of them right turns, are the most of the five routes here, so right turn planning shapes the whole drive.
Watch Out For
- Sixteen right turns, more than any other route here, each needing full observation and correct positioning.
- Three pedestrian crossings, including this one.
- A school area with a reduced limit and children nearby.
- Four roundabouts, where you give way to the right and signal left on exit.
Route Features
- Only 8 traffic signals despite the length, so give way judgement matters more than lights.
- Named roads include Lyle Road and Dalrymple Street.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left is set here, so signal, check mirrors and stop parallel to the kerb.
Key Tips
- Pace yourself over the full 35 minutes.
- Drop to the 20 mph sections early rather than braking at the sign.
