Lessons start at the Starbucks car park on West End Road, on the western edge of the town centre.
On day one, your instructor will take you to a quiet residential area to start with the basics such as getting into gear, starting, stopping and turning.
Once you’re ready, you’ll take on the town’s gyratory and one-way system, with multi-lane approaches, traffic lights and junctions such as the St Matthew’s roundabout. Parked cars and bus stops on Norwich Road and London Road add close-quarters driving. All of these elements will bolster your confidence as you refine your basics.
The A14 runs along the south of the town, crossing the River Orwell on the Orwell Bridge, and the A12 runs around the east. Both give practice at 70mph driving, slip roads and lorries heading to and from Felixstowe. The A1156 and A1189 carry traffic across the south-east of town through a series of large roundabouts which will help improve your turning, signalling and hazard perception.
The practical test centre is on Wentworth Road in Ransomes Europark, close to the A14. Routes from here often use the Felixstowe Road mini roundabouts, Foxhall Road. We cover these routes as part of your intensive week.
