Messiah Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 step 3 should be merge right after the second roundabout. Left at the first roundabout takes you onto belbowrie close, right at the second takes you on to middle dural road. a nicer route is right at the first round about onto arcadia road, then left onto wilds road, then right on to old northern Sorry... i used to be a local.
