Pendle Business Centre, Commercial Road BB9 9BT. From M65 J13 follow A682 Manchester Rd then turn into Commercial Rd.
The Leeds‑Liverpool Canal towpath on NCN 68 passes ¼ mile north—stands at Morrisons.
The Lancashire centre operates at Kenyon Road, BB9 5SP on Lomeshaye Industrial Estate. Eight marked bays face pallet‑truck traffic, so clutch‑bite and quick observation are tested from the get‑go. Learners settle nerves with a lap through Pendle Wavelengths car‑park.
Bay parking first. Independent driving joins the M65 J13 eastbound, loops A56 Padiham bypass then returns via the A6068 urban dual—expect average‑speed cameras and 40‑to‑70 jumps. Emergency stops on Churchill Way straight; examiners watch mirror discipline at Reedyford mini‑roundabouts.
Digital results bring your photocard in ten days. Pass Plus across the M6 Lancaster leg, A59 Skipton road and A682 Barrowford hill hones diverse‑setting judgement.
DriveBot sweeps Nelson, Blackburn and Burnley nonstop, re‑booking you the second a slot opens.
