Loughton (London) #2470 Pro
This 1-stage route covers 8.6 miles in about 33 minutes around Theydon Bois, with speeds between 30 mph and 40 mph. It has just 1 traffic light, fewer than most of the 19 routes from this centre, so the test leans on turns and roundabouts instead.
Watch Out For
- 11 right turns against 8 left turns, so right-turn positioning and gap judgement come up often.
- 3 roundabouts, including the Wake Arms Roundabout: give way to the right and signal left on exit.
Route Features
- The route runs along Pyrles Lane and Traps Hill, and reaches Theydon Road in the north.
Test Manoeuvres
- Expect to pull up on the left and move off safely again.
Key Tips
- Check the speed limit every time it changes between 30 mph and 40 mph.
- With only 1 signal, plan your lane early for the roundabouts.
