1. By car

Unit 5, Llandegai Industrial Estate, Bangor LL57 4HR. Exit the A55 at J11, take the A5 Holyhead Road toward Bangor, then turn left into Llandegai Industrial Estate—DVSA cabin is the first unit on the left. Free candidate parking is signed outside.

2. By public transport

• Rail – Bangor (Gwynedd) station sits 1.4 miles west; Arriva Cymru 5 (& 5C on Sundays) departs from just outside every 15 minutes, alighting at “Llandegai Estate”.
• Bus – Arriva 5/5C & Gwynfor S1 link the city centre and Bethesda every 15 mins, using the same stop.

3. Cycling / walking

Lon Las Ogwen (NCN 82) meets Holyhead Road opposite the estate entrance, providing a scenic traffic‑free arrival from the pier or Snowdonia—bike hoops outside Dyffryn Ogwen Heritage Centre (two‑minute ride).

1. Faenol Roundabout (A487)

• Typical slip‑up – left‑lane drivers inadvertently cutting across to exit for Caernarfon.
• Quick fix – read the green Advance Direction Sign early and choose right‑hand lane for 2nd exit.

2. City‑wide 20 mph default limit

• Typical slip‑up – letting speed creep to 25 mph on Garth Rd and Deiniol Rd.
• Quick fix – sit in 3rd gear; if the needle nudges 22 mph lift off gently.

3. Britannia Bridge cross‑winds (A55)

• Typical slip‑up – failing to compensate for gusts and drifting towards the parapet.
• Quick fix – keep both hands firm at 9‑and‑3, reduce to 40 mph and add gentle steering pressure into the wind.

1. About Bangor Test Centre from a Learner’s View

Bangor’s centre sits in Llandegai Industrial Estate with a spacious car park—ideal for bay‑parking practice. Minutes after you leave, you’ll tackle the Penrhos Road mini‑roundabouts before joining the A55—great lane‑discipline training.

2. What to Expect on the Day

Bring your provisional and be ten minutes early. After the eyesight check and “show me, tell me” question, expect one manoeuvre (often bay parking on site) and maybe an emergency stop. Independent‑driving frequently heads onto the A487 or A55, so polish speed‑transition awareness.

3. After You Pass

Your examiner can file the paperwork digitally; the licence arrives inside two weeks. Book Pass Plus on the A55 coastal highway and hunt black‑box insurance to cut costs.

4. What If You Don’t Pass?
