Sheffield (Handsworth) #622 Pro
This 16.4 km route heads west through Richmond, past Woodthorpe to Intake via Ridgeway Road, south to Hollinsend and Base Green, then returns via Woodhouse Road and the Prince of Wales Road onto Sheffield Parkway. Thirty-two traffic lights and only 2 roundabouts make this a signal-heavy route.
Watch Out For
Ridgeway Road has on-street parking making it effectively single track in places. The Hollinsend Road descent is steep with a junction at the bottom. Base Green Jaunty Road has restricted visibility at junctions.
Route Features
50 mph on Sheffield Parkway, 40 mph on Prince of Wales Road, residential estates in Base Green and Hollinsend, 32 traffic lights, only 2 roundabouts, and varied hill gradients.
Test Manoeuvres
Pull up on the left near Orgreave Way.
Key Tips
On Kilvington Road, the 20 mph zone is easy to miss. At Jaunty Avenue, the road bends sharply - reduce speed before the bend, not during it. The Woodrove Avenue junction has a complex layout - follow lane markings precisely.
