Are these the real driving test routes?
Scarborough Route 1 covers the roads, junctions and manoeuvres around Scarborough that learners commonly meet on test day. Examiners choose the exact route on the day, so there's no single official list — but practising the local roads you're most likely to be sent down is one of the best ways to prepare and to settle test-day nerves.

Scarborough Route 1 is rated moderate (3/5). It's a balanced route — comfortable once you've got the basics, with enough variety to keep you on your toes.
How long does Scarborough Route 1 take to drive?
It's about 22.4 km and takes roughly 44 min at a steady test pace. Leave a little extra for traffic and lights, and plan to drive it more than once — most learners find the route clicks into place by the second or third run.
