How the swap works here

  1. List your existing booking and desired dates.

  2. The DTC checks whether another learner wants your exact slot and you want theirs.

  3. Both learners accept, then each calls DVSA separately on the same day. Wait for DVSA to confirm the new bookings.

Planning around Crawley

The recorded address places this centre in Crawley and West Sussex. Before accepting a swap, check that your instructor can cover the new date and that the journey works for the vehicle you will use.

OpenStreetMap records Pease Pottage Interchange, Brighton Road (A23), Brighton Road, Horsham Road, Bellevue Farm Road, and Grace Holland Avenue within roughly one mile of the centre. The mix of larger roads including Pease Pottage Interchange and Brighton Road (A23) with local roads such as Brighton Road, Horsham Road, Bellevue Farm Road, and Grace Holland Avenue makes it sensible to practise changing speed, lane position and observation between different road types.

The surrounding mapped network includes roundabouts and traffic signals.

Road and transport context was checked against OpenStreetMap contributors on 2026-09-04. It describes the surrounding mapped area, not an official or guaranteed test route.
