Kelmscott #809 Free
The shortest route from Kelmscott at 14 km and 26 minutes, covering Kelmscott, Seville Grove, and Armadale in a single stage. Despite being short, this route packs in 10 roundabouts, 2 school zones, and some 70 km/h driving on Albany Highway. Speed limits range from 40 to 70 km/h with frequent changes, and the route includes a brief 40 km/h zone section. A good route for building confidence before tackling the longer Kelmscott options.
Watch Out For
- Two school zones near Armadale Road. Both are 40 km/h during 7:30-9:00am and 2:30-4:00pm (WA hours). If your test falls in these windows, you must drop speed well before the zone. Failing to slow down is a critical error.
- Albany Highway (70 km/h). The main road section. You need to reach the speed limit. Three speed-70 signs are recorded along this stretch.
- Roundabouts in Seville Grove. The Heathcote Road and Seville Drive area has multiple roundabouts in residential streets. Signal left on entry for left exit, right for right exit, and always signal left when leaving.
- Armadale Road junction. Busy road connecting to Railway Avenue. Watch the speed transition from 60 to 70 km/h.
Route Features
- 10 left turns, 8 right turns, 10 roundabouts

Key Tips
- The 2 school zones are the biggest trap on this route. If testing during school hours, watch for the electronic signs and slow down to 40 km/h before entering.
- Speed changes frequently between 40, 50, 60, and 70 km/h. Keep scanning for speed signs after every intersection.
- This is the quickest Kelmscott route at 26 minutes. Stay composed and do not rush through the residential sections.
