EDT lessons built for Citywest traffic
Twelve lessons on Citywest roads. Fortunestown Lane, Citywest Road roundabouts, and the route to Tallaght.
L1-2: Car Controls and Positioning
Fortunestown Way in the newer residential estates gives beginners room to breathe. Wide lanes, low traffic, and clear road markings let you find the bite point and hold a position without the pressure of busier traffic behind you.
Learn about EDTL3-4: Direction Changes and Speed
Fortunestown Lane runs past the shopping centre and carries regular bus and Luas-connecting traffic. You practise speed matching, positioning for direction changes, and reading the flow as it varies between school hours and commuter peaks.
EDT detailsL5-6: Complex Positioning and Hazards
Saggart Road transitions from suburban to semi-rural and the speed limits change with the landscape. You learn to spot the signs early, adjust your speed in time, and position correctly for junctions where visibility opens up fast.
Test preparationL7-8: Sharing the Road and Traffic
Citywest Boulevard runs past the hotel and conference centre and gets busy when events are on. The wide lanes can lead to careless positioning, so lessons here focus on holding your line and watching for vehicles pulling out from the hotel access road.
Test preparationL9-10: Complex Junctions and Speed Management
Citywest Road has the most demanding roundabouts in the area. Multiple lanes, directional signs, and fast-moving traffic require you to commit to a lane choice before you reach the give-way line and to read the roundabout all the way through.

The last two lessons run the route to Broomhill Road and the Tallaght test centre. Luas track crossings on Citywest Road need their own checklist. Night driving adds the light and signal management layer before the day of your test.
