Recorded Shrewsbury Test Centre driving test routes

Are these the official Shrewsbury Test Centre driving test routes?

No — and no one has those. The DVSA withdrew its published test routes, so there is no current map of the route you will be given. Examiners at Shrewsbury Test Centre work from a pool of routes over the surrounding roads and choose on the day. The 15 routes on this page are real GPS traces recorded on tests at this test centre, which is the closest honest substitute: they show the roads examiners actually use.

How to practise for Shrewsbury Test Centre

  1. 1

    Drive the roads around the test centre

    Routes start and finish here, so the surrounding few miles do most of the work. Cover them at different times of day until the awkward junctions stop being surprises.

  2. 2

    Learn the local road character

    Watch how the recorded routes behave: where they meet roundabouts, where they sit on dual carriageways, and which manoeuvres the geometry keeps asking for.

  3. 3

    Move your lessons into the test area

    In the final weeks, ask your instructor to run mock tests starting from Shrewsbury Test Centre itself. It is the closest legitimate rehearsal of test day there is.
