Greenock #2144 Pro
This is the shortest route at the Greenock test centre, 6.6 miles in about 26 minutes as a single stage. It covers Greenock West, Cartsdyke, Ladyburn, Bridgend and Central at a constant 30 mph. Short does not mean quiet on paperwork: 11 traffic signals and 18 turns are packed into that time, a denser run of junction work than the longer routes here.
Watch Out For
- Ten right turns against eight left, so most junctions ask you to cross the opposing flow.
- A pedestrian crossing and a cycle lane sitting close together.
- Three roundabouts, where you give way to the right and signal left on exit.
Route Features
- A single 30 mph limit with no 20 mph section and no school zone.
- The eastern leg takes in Main Street and East Hamilton Street.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left is set here, so mirror, signal and stop parallel to the kerb.
Key Tips
- With 11 signals in 26 minutes, read the lights early and avoid harsh braking.
- Hold 30 mph where safe, since there is no lower limit to drop into.
