Clonee roads will sharpen your driving

Clonee Road connects to the R149 and carries a mix of local and commuter traffic. Ongar Road feeds into new housing estates with roundabouts that are still confusing to regular drivers. The R149 is fast and the junctions onto it require proper timing. Learning out here means getting used to higher speed roads and estate driving with new road layouts.

EDT lessons on Clonee roads

Twelve lessons from Ongar estates to the R149 roundabouts. The roads Clonee learners will face on test day.

1 2

L1-2: Car Controls and Positioning

Ongar Square and the surrounding estate roads are wide and calm. These early lessons focus on clutch control, mirror routines, and holding the car in position without tension. Speed ramps throughout the estate give you your first smooth braking practice.

L3-4: Direction Changes and Speed

Littlepace Road carries school traffic during term time and the flow changes depending on the hour. You practise adjusting your speed early for the school zone, positioning for left and right turns, and timing your moves without rushing.

5 6

L5-6: Complex Positioning and Hazards

Clonee Road itself introduces the first real mix of hazards. Village character at one end, new estate entrances at the other, and junctions where sight lines are cut by walls and hedgerows. Careful positioning and early mirror checks are the focus.

Test preparation
7 8

L7-8: Sharing the Road and Traffic

The Old Navan Road connects through to Mulhuddart and the test centre. Narrow in parts with bends, it teaches you to manage your road position when oncoming vehicles are tight. This road appears on test routes, so knowing it well matters.

Test preparation
9 10

L9-10: Complex Junctions and Speed Management

R149 roundabouts between Clonee and Blanchardstown are multi-lane and fast. These lessons are about committing to your lane choice before the give-way line and reading the roundabout all the way through without hesitating mid-circle.

L11-12: Calm Driving and Night Conditions

The final lessons practise the Mulhuddart test centre route and the county boundary stretch on Clonee Road where the speed limit changes. Calm, consistent driving in daylight and at night. The last thing your instructor checks before your test day.

Driving lessons in Clonee, from Ongar Road to the Mulhuddart test

Clonee Road is where the village meets the commuter belt. Old houses give way to new estate entrances and the road carries a mix of local traffic and people pushing through to the R149. Reading that mix early is a skill your first few lessons will build.

Pickups at Littlepace Shopping Centre car park, Clonee village centre, or Ongar Square. Female instructors are available on request. Manual single lessons are €53.27, or €49 per lesson on the 12-lesson EDT (€587.95 total).

The R149 is fast and the roundabouts between Clonee and Blanchardstown need lane discipline before you reach them, not at them. Ongar estates add a different challenge, with tight layouts and speed ramps every fifty metres.

Your test is at Mulhuddart Test Centre on the Old Navan Road. Automatic single lessons are €61.41, or €54.94 per lesson on the 12-pack (€659.24 total). The 6-lesson manual pack is €52.50 per lesson. Pretest with car hire is €183.63 manual or €193.81 automatic.

Laura O'Regan
Laura trained with Richard. I completed my EDT lessons with Richard in the Clonee / Blanchardstown area. He is a great instructor, very knowledgeable, patient and helpful, which made me more confident in each lesson as they went. His explanations were very clear, thorough and easy to understand which made my learning experience on the road that bit smoother and more comfortable. After each lesson, he gave honest and detailed feedback with valuable advice which helped me improve so much when practicing. I definitely recommend him as an instructor. Thanks again Richie.

Matthew took driving lessons with RSA School of Motoring. I had Ritchie Finnegan as a Driving Instructor Around Mullhardart and Blanchardstown, and had a great experience. He was patient with my bad habits and mistakes, and took the time to make sure I understood and practiced better ones. I feel very confident in my school after his instruction, and would recommend him to anyone.
