Edinburgh (Currie) #631 Free
This 13.4 km route from Edinburgh Currie heads east on Lanark Road, south through Colinton via Spylaw Avenue and Kingsknowe, east through Redhall and Longstone, then north via Calder Road to Sighthill before returning. Seven roundabouts (the most of any Currie route) and extensive 20 mph residential driving.
Watch Out For
Colinton has narrow roads with parked cars and tight bends. Seven roundabouts throughout demand consistent observation. Kingsknowe residential streets have 20 mph zones and give-way junctions with limited sightlines.
Route Features
All 30 mph with 20 mph zones (no high-speed sections), Colinton village driving, 7 roundabouts (most in Currie), 6 traffic lights, give-ways, school zone, and 30 waypoints.
Test Manoeuvres
Pull up on the left near Bryce Road.
Key Tips
In Colinton, the road narrows at stone walls - position carefully. The seven roundabouts use different lane markings - follow signs on each approach. On Redhall streets, watch for pedestrians near the care home.
