How the swap works here

  1. 1. List your existing booking and desired dates.
  2. 2. The DTC checks whether another learner wants your exact slot and you want theirs.
  3. 3. Both learners accept, then complete the official DVSA phone process.

OpenStreetMap records Western Relief Road (A3088), Lysander Road (A3088), Lysander Road, Bunford hill, Preston Road, and Larkhill Road within roughly one mile of the centre. The mix of larger roads including Western Relief Road (A3088), Lysander Road (A3088), Lysander Road, and Bunford hill with local roads such as Preston Road and Larkhill Road makes it sensible to practise changing speed, lane position and observation between different road types.

The surrounding mapped network includes roundabouts and traffic signals.
