Barrow In Furness Driving Test Routes

Key Test Route Highlights

Plenty of Roundabouts

All routes begin with multiple roundabouts within the first few minutes - especially around North Road, Park Road, and Ashburner Way. Be confident with your observations, lane positioning, and signalling each time.

Backstreets Like Hibbert Road and Rutland Street

You'll be directed through narrow, residential areas with tight junctions, such as Hibbert Road, Rutland Street, and Chester Place. These streets will test your control and awareness, so keep your speed low, and watch for parked vehicles and oncoming traffic.

Multi-lane and Busier Roads Around Abbey Road

Abbey Road features on every route and brings different challenges - roundabouts, traffic lights, and busy pedestrian areas. You may be asked to turn from or onto Abbey Road, so familiarise yourself with this road as it features heavily.

Linking Right Turns with Observation

Several areas, such as Mill Bank, Bank Lane, and Risedale Road, include sequences of right turns - some at roundabouts, others at standard junctions. Remember to use your mirrors, signal clearly, and wait patiently for a safe gap every time.
