Peterborough routes leave Second Drove past Boongate roundabout and onto the A1139 Frank Perkins Parkway, so parkway driving starts early. The Eye roundabout and Rhubarb Bridge cover the multi-lane work, while Millfield terraces, Dogsthorpe and Eastfield handle the tighter streets. Longer runs use the Fletton Parkway and Nene Parkway out towards The Ortons, Hampton, Bretton and Werrington.
