Driving test routes around Monmouth

The Monmouth test centre sits in an area characterised by predominantly rural and open roads with national-speed-limit sections, bends, and fewer but higher-consequence junctions. Local candidates should expect their route to reflect this environment. We are currently verifying the specific roads and fault hotspots examiners use around this centre with local instructors before publishing a full turn-by-turn guide — the data-backed pass rate, location map and nearby-centre comparisons below are already based on verified figures.

Routes are practice guidance, not guarantees. DVSA no longer publishes official test routes and your examiner chooses the route on the day — it can change without notice. Use this to practise the right roads and hazards, then take plenty of lessons around Monmouth with a local instructor.
