About the test routes

The test routes for both Cowley Road and Chesterton Road test centres use similar roads and on some occasions use the same roads.

It is a good idea to take a look over test routes and if possible practice the more difficult parts such as the roads leading in and out of the test centre, one-way systems and difficult roundabouts.

By taking driving lessons with Cambridge Driving School, most of the test routes will be covered during your lessons. This will provide you with the best possible chance of passing your test first time.
