Cambridge (Brookmount Court) #380 Pro
A unique route at Cambridge: the shortest (10.5 km) with the most turns (19 total: 9 left, 10 right), zero roundabouts in the routing, and a maximum speed of only 40 mph. This purely urban single-stage route stays within the Orchard Park residential area for about 28 minutes with 22 traffic signals and 5 school zones. It tests residential driving skills more intensively than any other Cambridge route.
Watch Out For
- 5 school zones. The most at Cambridge. Extensive 20 mph zones throughout the residential grid. Missing a school zone sign is a serious fault.
- 28 turns in 10.5 km. A turn every 550 metres on average. Mirror-signal-manoeuvre sequences come rapidly with little recovery time.
- Stop sign near Gilbert Road. The only stop sign on this route and one of very few at Cambridge. You must come to a complete stop.
- 3 pedestrian crossings. Near the southern section. Be ready to stop for pedestrians.
- Narrow residential streets. Alex Wood Road, Montgomery Road, and Brimley Road have parked cars on both sides.
- 12 bike lanes. Cyclists are present even in quiet residential streets. Check before every left turn.
Route Features
- 13 left turns, 15 right turns, 22 sets of traffic lights.
- Zero roundabouts in the Mapbox routing, though 5 mini-roundabout markers exist in the residential grid.
- 22 traffic signals, moderate count.
- Maximum speed only 40 mph. Mostly 20 mph and 30 mph throughout. No dual carriageway or rural sections.
- 5 school zones, 3 pedestrian crossings, 1 stop sign. The most hazard-dense route at Cambridge.
Test Manoeuvres
- Pull up on the left near Kirkwood Road.
Key Tips
- This route is entirely within Orchard Park. No high-speed driving, but the dense residential layout with 28 turns demands sustained concentration.
- The Mansel Way to Ferrars Way residential loop has multiple mini-roundabouts. Treat each one as a full roundabout: check right, signal correctly.
- Compared to Route #378 (30 signals, 70 mph, 8 turns), this route is the polar opposite: slow, residential, turn-heavy. Different skills are tested.
