Broome #240 Pro
This 14.4km Broome route is a roundabout marathon with 20 roundabouts packed into 25 minutes - the most of any Broome test route. Like all Broome routes, there are zero traffic signals in the entire town, making roundabout skills absolutely critical. Starting from Hamersley St, you will navigate through Gubinge Rd and out to Jigal Dr at 70km/h before returning via Robinson St.
Watch Out For
A school zone (40km/h) near Cable Beach Rd East is active 7:30-9:00am and 2:30-4:00pm. Two stop signs at Robinson St and Herbert St require a complete stop - rolling through is an instant fail. Speed changes between 50, 60, and 70km/h zones are frequent.
Route Features
- 2 left turns, 8 right turns, 20 roundabouts.
- 20 roundabouts - signal left on entry, signal left when exiting (WA rule)
- Speed zones: 50, 60, and 70km/h with a 40km/h school zone
- 2 stop signs and 23 give way intersections
- Mostly right turns (1L/7R) - check mirrors and signal early
Test Manoeuvres
Expect a pullover and re-enter traffic near Herbert St. With 20 roundabouts, the examiner is watching your indicator discipline at every one. Compared to Route #241 (12 roundabouts) this route has double the roundabout count, testing your consistency over a longer drive.
Key Tips
- Signal left to enter every roundabout, then signal left before your exit
- The 70km/h sections on Gubinge Rd and Jigal Dr are the fastest in Broome testing
- With zero traffic lights in all of Broome, roundabout priority rules replace signal reading entirely
