Warrington #783 Pro
The longest route from Warrington at 19.6 km and 34 minutes, and by far the most roundabout-heavy with 21 roundabouts. It loops extensively through Orford, Fearnhead, and out to Birchwood before heading north-west via Winwick Road. Also has 19 traffic lights (tied for most). Speeds reach 60 mph on Birchwood Park Avenue.
Watch Out For
- 21 roundabouts. That is roughly one every 900 metres. You must maintain a consistent approach routine throughout: mirrors, signal, position, speed, look. Fatigue from repetition is a real risk.
- Daten Avenue / Birchwood area. Cluster of roundabouts on business park roads. Lane markings vary between junctions.
- Winwick Road. Busy A-road with multiple lanes. Position correctly for each junction.
- Chiltern Road / Cotswold Road area. Residential streets with 30 mph limits between faster sections. Speed changes are frequent.
- Sandy Lane / Cotswold Road junction. Complex junction area where several residential roads meet.
