The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) no longer publicly publish motorcycle test routes to prevent test candidates from learning the routes.
The Durham motorcycle test routes detailed on this page may have altered slightly or changed entirely as test centres change locations and update their test routes accordingly.
As a result, use the motorcycle route information as a guide only and a reference into where the examiner is likely to take you during the module 2 practical motorcycle riding test.
The motorcycle test routes offer an excellent insight to the various types of roads, junctions, roundabouts and other forms of traffic systems that examiners test motorcycle candidates on. Many tests are failed on leaving and arriving back at the test centre as well as the busiest areas of the routes with high traffic density. Below are the Durham Meadowfield motorcycle test routes 1 to 5.
