Cambridge (Brookmount Court) #381 Pro
A 25.3 km single-stage route heading southeast to Teversham via Airport Way and returning through the Orchard Park residential grid. It combines 70 mph dual carriageway driving with extensive 20 mph residential zones, creating the widest speed variation at Cambridge. Features 21 traffic signals, only 5 roundabout, and 2 school zones over about 37 minutes.
Watch Out For
- Airport Way (70 mph). Dual carriageway section. Must reach an appropriate speed and use mirrors before every adjustment.
- School zone near St Catharine's Road. 20 mph during school hours. One of 2 school zones.
- School zone near Milton Road. The second school zone, on the outskirts heading northeast.
- Extensive 25 mph zone network. The western residential section around Arbury Road and Roseford Road has numerous 25 mph (40 km/h) speed signs. This is unusual and easy to confuse with 20 mph zones.
- 15 bike lanes. Heavy cycling presence. Check for cyclists at every junction.
Route Features
- 6 left turns, 7 right turns, 5 roundabouts, 21 sets of traffic lights.
- Only 5 roundabout near Ditton Lane.
- 21 traffic signals across both city and rural sections.
- Speed limits: 20 mph residential zones, 25 mph (40 km/h) near Histon Road, 30 mph through town, 50 mph transitional, 60 mph rural, 70 mph on Airport Way.
- Passes through Church Road in Teversham village.
Test Manoeuvres
- Pull up on the left near Kirkwood Road.
Key Tips
- The speed range from 20 mph to 70 mph is extreme. Smooth transitions between these speeds show excellent vehicle control.
- The western residential section around St Albans Road has many 25 mph signs. Do not assume the whole area is 20 mph.
- Route #375 follows a similar southeast path via Airport Way. Practising one covers much of the other.
