Miranda #821 Pro
The longest Miranda route at 10 km and 22 minutes, combining the northern Sylvania loop with the southern Gymea streets. This route shares the Port Hacking Road section and 70 km/h Bellingara Road with Route #81, plus the Bolaro Avenue residential section from Route #82. With 18 traffic lights, 3 roundabouts, and a U-turn, it packs the most variety of any Miranda route.
Watch Out For
- Bellingara Road (70 km/h). The only 70 km/h section at Miranda. Accelerate smoothly after the Bellingara Road turn and be ready to drop back to 60 quickly.
- U-turn near Port Hacking Road. Check mirrors, signal, confirm no oncoming traffic, then execute in one smooth motion.
- School zone near Craigholm Street. 40 km/h during school hours (8:00-9:30am and 2:30-4:00pm). One of two school zones on this route.
- Second school zone near Bellingara Road. Back-to-back school zones in the northern section. Easy to miss the second one.
- Stop signs on the northern loop. 5 stop signs total, most clustered in the Sylvania area. Each requires a complete stop.
Route Features
- 8 left turns, 9 right turns, 3 roundabouts, 18 sets of traffic lights.
- 18 traffic lights, the joint most of any Miranda route (tied with #822).
- Speed range: 40-70 km/h. The widest range, shared only with Route #81.
- 5 stop signs, 4 give way intersections, 1 U-turn.
- Covers both the northern Bellingara Road loop and southern Gymea streets.
- Essentially combines Route #81 (north) with Route #82 (south) into one longer test.
Test Manoeuvres
- Kerbside stop near Miranda centre.
Key Tips
- At 10 km, concentration over a longer duration is key. The test covers almost every road type Miranda offers.
- If you have practised Routes #81 and #82 separately, you already know most of this route. The sections connect near Garnet Road.
- Speed management from 40 to 70 km/h requires constant attention. Changes happen quickly between the school zones and Bellingara Road.
- At the Sylvania roundabouts, give way to the right and signal left when leaving.
