Highlights along the way

Beccles

The Waveney-side town is a possible walking break near the northern end of the Suffolk B-road crossing. Riverside access is separate from the driving line.

Before you set off

Watch for farm vehicles, mud after wet weather and changing village limits. Give horses plenty of room around Newmarket country and keep optional village visits separate from navigation. Check current road closures, vehicle suitability and weather before travel. Driving time excludes stops and live traffic. All visits off the driving line are optional independent detours.

Frequently asked questions

A little help planning your drive.

Does the estimated driving time include stops?

The estimated 18 min is driving time only. Allow extra time for viewpoints, breaks and visits. Live traffic, weather and road conditions can change the journey time.

Does this drive bring me back to the start?

No. This is a point-to-point drive, finishing somewhere different from the start. Allow for your onward journey or plan a return route.

Can I start somewhere else or change the stops?

Yes. Customise this route to change the start, finish or stops, or build it into a multi-day road trip. Sign in to save your own version.

Are the start and finish points parking locations?

Not necessarily. They mark the route’s driving references and are not a guarantee of parking or a suitable place to stop. Check parking arrangements separately and only stop where it is safe and permitted.

What should I know before setting off?

Read the Before you set off notes for this drive, then check current road closures and conditions. The notes highlight route-specific considerations; they are not a live road-status report.

What does Remapped approved mean?

“Remapped approved” means a route has been selected and approved by Remapped. We use a combination of driving routes ourselves, scouting locations, prior knowledge and detailed research. The mix varies by route: approval does not mean every road has been personally driven. Road-image locations are confirmed using GPS data. How we choose and approve routes ↗
