A 9.7 km, 23-minute two-stage route heading west from City West Perth through West Leederville, Wembley, and Subiaco. This route has 4 roundabouts and 10 traffic lights, a balanced mix compared to Route #260 (which has 17 signals but only 1 roundabout). A rare 30 km/h zone adds an extra speed trap that the other routes do not share.

Watch Out For

  • 30 km/h speed zone. One of the few routes from this centre with a 30 km/h limit. Watch for the signs carefully and slow down well before the zone begins.
  • 4 roundabouts around Wembley. Signal on entry (left for left, right for right, no signal for straight), and always signal left when exiting. In WA, you must signal your intention before entering the roundabout.
  • Give way intersection. One give way point along the route. Slow down and yield to all traffic.

Route Features

Test Manoeuvres

  • Pullover in the Wembley area near Jersey St.

Key Tips

  • The 30 km/h zone is the biggest trap on this route. If you are used to 50 km/h residential streets, you may forget to drop low enough.
  • Lake Monger Dr can have cyclists and pedestrians near the lake. Scan well ahead and check mirrors before passing parked cars.
  • With 4 roundabouts in the western section, practise the WA roundabout signalling sequence until it becomes automatic.
