Stevenage #891 Pro
This 15.3 km route from Stevenage heads south through the town. Starting on Lytton Way, it follows Fairlands Way and Gunnels Wood Road southeast, then through Bedwell on Elder Way and Monkswood Way. The route continues south to Roebuck and Broadwater via Broadwater Crescent, reaching the southern edge at Oaks Cross. It returns north on Broadhall Way and Valley Way through Shephall before heading back via Fairlands Way.
Watch Out For
Fourteen roundabouts along the Stevenage road network, most on the 40 mph distributor roads. Only 2 traffic lights make this almost entirely roundabout-dependent for traffic control. Broadwater Crescent has 20 mph zones with speed humps near residential areas. The B197 junction near Roebuck Gate is busy with through-traffic.
Route Features
The longest southward route from Stevenage, reaching Broadwater and Shephall at the town's southern boundary. Mainly 40 mph dual carriageway driving on Broadhall Way (411 segments at 64 km/h). Broadwater Crescent and Oaks Cross are quieter residential streets at 30 mph. Valley Way and Shephall View provide suburban estate driving.
Key Tips
On Broadhall Way, maintain 40 mph and stay in the left lane unless overtaking. At the Roebuck Gate roundabout, follow the road markings carefully for the Broadwater Crescent exit. In Broadwater, watch for the 20 mph zone and slow accordingly. On the return via Valley Way, check for children near Shephall schools during term time.
