DVSA Practical Test Centres

Practical test centres near Keynsham

Keynsham learners typically book their practical at Trowbridge, around eight miles south-east, which runs at roughly the national average for pass rates. Routes tend to mix residential areas with some faster A-road sections, so most instructors build those dual-speed skills into the final lessons before test day. Bristol (Kingswood) is the second-closest option at around nine miles north-west, posting a slightly higher pass rate and often worth considering if Trowbridge slots are scarce.

Chippenham sits around eleven miles north-east and serves as the third nearest centre, though its pass rate runs lower so most local learners treat it as a backup when the other two are fully booked. All three centres are within a similar driving distance, so the choice often comes down to availability and which routes your instructor thinks suit your strengths best.
