This 8.6-mile, 31-minute route heads east towards Hawkesbury via Blackhorse Road, then south through Jackers Road in Alderman's Green and Almond Tree Avenue to Bell Green and Little Heath. The return goes west on Foleshill Road and Jimmy Hill Way before looping through Wheelwright Lane and Ash Green. This is the only Coventry route without any 60 or 70 mph roads, staying entirely at 30 and 50 mph. With 17 turns (7 left, 10 right) and 5 roundabouts, it focuses on urban junction work in residential estates.

Watch Out For

  • Blackhorse Road. Narrow road heading east towards Hawkesbury; watch for industrial vehicles near the canal area.
  • Jackers Road. Residential street in Alderman's Green with speed humps and parked cars; maintain 30 mph and watch for children.
  • Bell Green Road. Busy junction with traffic signals near the Bell Green shopping area; pedestrians frequently cross here.
  • Proffitt Avenue. Quiet residential road in Courthouse Green but with junctions that require careful observation.
  • St Giles Road. Village road in Ash Green with a different character from the urban sections; adjust speed for the narrower width.

Route Features

  • Only Coventry route with no 60 or 70 mph sections; maximum speed is 50 mph on the A-road sections
  • 10 right turns, testing cross-traffic observation skills at numerous residential junctions
  • 5 roundabouts including the cluster near Three Spires Junction
  • Passes through 7 distinct neighbourhoods from Hawkesbury to Ash Green

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • With no high-speed sections, the examiner will closely watch your speed control in 30 mph zones; avoid creeping over the limit
  • At the many residential right turns, position to the centre of the road and check oncoming traffic thoroughly
  • Jackers Road and Almond Tree Avenue have speed humps; slow down gradually rather than braking hard on each one
