The DVSA stopped publishing test routes in 2010 and examiners vary them deliberately, so treat each centre page as a guide to local road types rather than a route list. Knowing you will meet dense residential streets is worth more than memorising turns. Centre by centre — Barking (Tanner Street): dense residential streets, bus lanes and multi-lane junctions. Emerging from side roads with parked cars blocking the view is the recurring test of observation.. Barnet (London): wide urban a-roads, pedestrian crossings in series and tight residential turns. Emerging from side roads with parked cars blocking the view is the recurring test of observation.. Belvedere (London): signal-controlled crossroads, bus gates and back-street rat runs. Bus lane timings and cycle lanes both feature; check the signage rather than following the car in front.. Bromley (London): inner ring road, cycle lanes and terraced side streets. Emerging from side roads with parked cars blocking the view is the recurring test of observation.. Chingford (London): signal-controlled crossroads, bus gates and back-street rat runs. Bus lane timings and cycle lanes both feature; check the signage rather than following the car in front.. Croydon: town-centre one-way system, tram crossings and suburban hills. Tram lines feature on several routes — observation and positioning matter.. Enfield (Innova Business Park): signal-controlled crossroads, bus gates and back-street rat runs. Emerging from side roads with parked cars blocking the view is the recurring test of observation.. Erith (London): arterial roads, box junctions and parked-car navigation. Bus lane timings and cycle lanes both feature; check the signage rather than following the car in front.. Goodmayes (London): dense residential streets, bus lanes and multi-lane junctions. Emerging from side roads with parked cars blocking the view is the recurring test of observation.. Greenford (Horsenden Lane): signal-controlled crossroads, bus gates and back-street rat runs. Hesitation at busy junctions is the most common fault here — commit once the gap is genuinely there.. Hayes (London): dense residential streets, bus lanes and multi-lane junctions. Emerging from side roads with parked cars blocking the view is the recurring test of observation.. Hendon (London): arterial roads, box junctions and parked-car navigation. Emerging from side roads with parked cars blocking the view is the recurring test of observation.. Hither Green (London): dense residential streets, bus lanes and box junctions. Narrow roads with parked cars on both sides make meeting traffic a common test element.. Hornchurch (London): retail-park approaches, filter lanes and 20mph residential zones. Emerging from side roads with parked cars blocking the view is the recurring test of observation.. Isleworth (Fleming Way): arterial roads, box junctions and parked-car navigation. Hesitation at busy junctions is the most common fault here — commit once the gap is genuinely there.. Mill Hill (London): suburban residential, a-road dual carriageway and multi-lane roundabouts. Routes typically head out into quieter north-London suburbs before returning through busier arterial roads.. Mitcham (London): retail-park approaches, filter lanes and 20mph residential zones. Hesitation at busy junctions is the most common fault here — commit once the gap is genuinely there.. Morden (London): inner ring road, cycle lanes and terraced side streets. Hesitation at busy junctions is the most common fault here — commit once the gap is genuinely there.. Pinner (London): inner ring road, cycle lanes and terraced side streets. Emerging from side roads with parked cars blocking the view is the recurring test of observation.. Romford: ring road, a12 / a127 dual carriageway and residential estates. High-speed dual carriageway is common, so joining and leaving at speed is worth practising.. Sidcup (London): dense residential streets, bus lanes and multi-lane junctions. Bus lane timings and cycle lanes both feature; check the signage rather than following the car in front.. Southall (London): one-way gyratory, loading bays and delivery traffic and school-run streets. Bus lane timings and cycle lanes both feature; check the signage rather than following the car in front.. Tolworth (London): wide urban a-roads, pedestrian crossings in series and tight residential turns. Hesitation at busy junctions is the most common fault here — commit once the gap is genuinely there.. Tottenham: retail-park approaches, filter lanes and 20mph residential zones. Hesitation at busy junctions is the most common fault here — commit once the gap is genuinely there.. Uxbridge (London): retail-park approaches, filter lanes and 20mph residential zones. Bus lane timings and cycle lanes both feature; check the signage rather than following the car in front.. Wanstead (London): arterial roads, box junctions and parked-car navigation. Lane changes under pressure are where most marks go, particularly on the approach to signals.. West Wickham (London): dense residential streets, bus lanes and multi-lane junctions. Bus lane timings and cycle lanes both feature; check the signage rather than following the car in front.. Wood Green (London): wide urban a-roads, pedestrian crossings in series and tight residential turns. Lane changes under pressure are where most marks go, particularly on the approach to signals.. Yeading (London): dense residential streets, bus lanes and multi-lane junctions. Lane changes under pressure are where most marks go, particularly on the approach to signals.. ## Local detail worth knowing in Greater London Emerging from side roads with parked cars blocking the view is the recurring test of observation., At least one manoeuvre is usually set on a narrow residential street with traffic passing., Most candidates here travel in from around Greater London, so allow for the journey when you pick a slot., The independent drive tends to follow signs through the busiest part of the network. and Barnet (London) covers a wide slice of Greater London, and instructors who teach it weekly know which approach roads back up.. None of that is a route, and none of it is a guarantee — it is what comes back from instructors teaching these centres week in, week out. ## Preparing for a test in Greater London Practice on the real roads Your last sessions before the test are worked around your booked centre, not generic estate roads. A marked mock test Run the way an examiner runs it, with a written debrief of every fault. All four manoeuvres Practised in the kind of locations examiners in this area actually use. Test-day rehearsal Paperwork, show me / tell me and the independent drive, covered in advance.
