Book Your First Lesson in Elm ParkLearning to drive in Elm Park, Havering
Elm Park sits beside Hornchurch, and Hornchurch test centre is close by. That means the roads near the centre are part of ordinary lessons rather than a special trip before your test. The quieter streets around Harrow Lodge Park are a good place to begin. From there, Elm Park Avenue and Wood Lane bring busier junctions, and the roads around the test centre come into the course as your skills grow. Because the test roads are familiar, it is worth paying attention to habits that slip on roads you know well, like a quick glance instead of a proper look at a junction.

Route Tips from Elm Park
- Most routes leave by Ravenscourt Grove and Hacton Lane onto Upminster Road (A124). Take care at the junctions with Upminster Road, which is busy in both directions.
- Around half the routes use the A127 Southend Arterial Road, which runs at 40 to 70mph. Build up to the speed of the traffic before you join, and watch for the limit dropping as you come off.
- Hall Lane and Ardleigh Green Road run at 30 to 40mph. Keep to the limit, and look early for the junctions at each end.
