The next left will take you on to Midmoor Road, at the end of which you can emerge left on to Haverhill Road. From here you can turn back on to Emmanuel Road. This circuit provides a tried and tested method for allowing you to practice steering, MSPSL and peep and creep techniques.

Atkins Road, Weir Road, Clarence Avenue and Thornton Road meet at a roundabout where the student can gain a good understanding of how to negotiate and cross them safely. Priorities, positioning and the appropriate signals to use can be practiced here.

Pedestrian Crossings and use of Signals
