Leicester (Cannock Street) Driving Test Centre 

Routes 
To make driving tests more representative of real-life driving, the DVSA no longer publishes 
official test routes. However, you can find a number of recent routes used at the Leicester 
(Cannock Street) driving test centre in this document. 
 
While test routes from this centre are likely to be very similar to those below, you should treat 
this document as a rough guide only. Exact test routes are at the examiners’ discretion and are
