What sets Enfield (Innova Business Park) apart from other centres in London & the South East is the mix of signal-controlled crossroads, bus gates and back-street rat runs on its routes. It is a combination you cannot rehearse on one street, which is why the sessions immediately before the test are worked around the centre itself.
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.
