Are these the real driving test routes?

Reading Route 9 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 Reading Route 9 take to drive?
It's about 21.8 km and takes roughly 51 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.
How do I practise Reading Route 9?
