Birmingham (Kings Heath) #577 Pro
This Kings Heath route heads east through Henlow Road and Warstock Road to Stanbury Road and Warstock Lane, then south-east via Cleeve Road and Glastonbury Road to Haslucks Green Road in Major's Green. The route continues south on School Road, then west through Highters Heath Lane and Alcester Road South back to the centre.
Watch Out For
Zero traffic signals means every junction relies on your observation and judgment. The eastern residential streets around Glastonbury Road are narrow with parked cars obscuring junctions. Haslucks Green Road carries faster traffic. A 20 mph zone near Maypole Lane school. The 40 mph section needs prompt adaptation.
Route Features
14.2 km with 14 turns (8 left, 6 right), 3 roundabouts, and zero traffic signals. Speeds from 20 to 40 mph. An eastern loop through Warstock, Hall Green, Major's Green, and Highters Heath.
Test Manoeuvres
Pull up on the left near the test centre on Alcester Road South.
Key Tips
With 8 left turns and no signals, practise give-way junctions thoroughly. On Glastonbury Road, check left and right at every junction as visibility is poor. Haslucks Green Road is a collector road with faster traffic. Maintain 30 mph confidently through the residential stretches.
