At 13 km, this is the longest Goodmayes route. It heads south through Abbotsford Road to Longbridge Road, then east via Porters Avenue to Gale Street. It reaches the A13 (Goresbrook Interchange) before looping back through Ripple Road and Lodge Avenue via the double roundabout, returning north through Goodmayes Lane. Includes 40 and 50 mph dual carriageway sections.

Watch Out For

The A13 approach at Goresbrook Interchange has 50 mph traffic and complex lane markings. Nine speed limit zones at 40 mph and three at 50 mph along the Lodge Avenue corridor. The double roundabout near Lodge Avenue requires correct lane choice for each exit. Four give way junctions and twenty traffic signals (the most of any Goodmayes route).

Route Features

One main roundabout (double), twenty traffic signals, and two bike lanes. Six left turns and nine right turns. Gale Street is a long, straight residential road through Becontree. Speed limits range from 20 to 50 mph.

Test Manoeuvres

Pull up on the left near Kildowan Road.

Key Tips

Practise the Lodge Avenue double roundabout until you can navigate both confidently. On the A13 approach, get into the correct lane early. The 40 and 50 mph sections reward confident acceleration - do not crawl below the limit on dual carriageway.
