Learning to drive in Stratford
Lessons usually start on the calmer streets away from the centre before progressing to the routes Stratford is known for. The Stratford Broadway one-way system, the gyratory around the town centre, the Bow flyover approaches and the busy roads around Westfield and the A11/A12 all need real practice. Heavy bus traffic, cyclists and constant pedestrian activity mean you finish your lessons fully prepared for real-world driving.
