This 14.7 km route from Handsworth takes a varied loop through Waverley via Highfield Spring and Catcliffe, returns on Sheffield Parkway, then heads south-west through Richmond Park Road to Richmond and Normanton Hill, returning via Woodhouse. This route includes 70 mph dual carriageway and a school zone, with 5 speed limit changes in 50 mph zones alone.

Watch Out For

Five 50 mph speed limit markers along the Parkway corridor change frequently. The school zone near Woodthorpe drops to 20 mph during school hours. Two pedestrian crossings near the Parkway require early anticipation at 50 mph.

Route Features

70 mph on Sheffield Parkway, 50 mph buffer zones, residential driving in Richmond and Woodthorpe, new-build estate navigation at Waverley, 5 roundabouts, 7 traffic lights, and school zone.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

The Waverley development has new roads with unfamiliar layouts - follow road markings carefully. On Normanton Hill, use engine braking on the descent and be prepared for the junction at the bottom. The give-way near Woodhouse sits on a bend with limited sightlines.
