Blessington Road carries faster traffic heading towards the N81 and the gradient increases as you head south. Killinarden has tight estate roads with limited visibility at corners. Learning in Jobstown means mastering residential estate driving before stepping up to faster main roads.

Estate roads, Luas crossings, and the Blessington Road gradient. EDT in Jobstown covers the full range.

Learn about EDTL3-4: Direction Changes on Jobstown Road

EDT detailsL5-6: Complex Positioning at Fortunestown Lane
Fortunestown Lane brings Luas crossings, commercial traffic, and varied road layouts into your lesson. Lessons five and six cover the crossing signals, approach positions, and the right turn towards Citywest business park where visibility is limited.
Test preparationL7-8: Sharing Road Space on Old Bawn Road
Old Bawn Road carries steady bus traffic and commuters heading into Tallaght. Bus lanes operate during peak hours. Lessons seven and eight teach you to read lane markings, manage bus lane entry and exit, and hold a consistent position in moving traffic.
Test preparationL9-10: Speed and the Blessington Road Transition
Blessington Road south of Jobstown is the fastest road in your lesson area. The speed limit rises and gear changes follow quickly. Lessons nine and ten practise the transition from residential 50 zones to the open 80 zone and back, building confidence on faster roads.

Jobstown Road runs through the middle of the area and it is a good first road. The speed ramps are constant, junctions appear every 50 metres, and the pace is slow enough to learn on but busy enough to matter. Your instructor meets you at An Cosan Centre on Jobstown Road or at Killinarden Park, both well-known local spots.
Killinarden Heights is where early lessons happen. Cul-de-sacs and tight estate roads with parked cars on both sides. Turning, reversing, and parking in real conditions, not a car park. The cul-de-sacs here are used by most Tallaght test examiners, so the practice is directly relevant.
Fortunestown Lane connects Jobstown to Citywest and carries a mix of residential and commercial traffic, with Luas crossings to get comfortable with. Your instructor covers tram signals and road markings here so they are not a surprise on test day.
Old Bawn Road takes you towards Tallaght town with bus lanes and steady traffic. Blessington Road south is where speed awareness comes in, climbing from 50 to 80 as the housing gives way to open road.
Female instructors are available. Tallaght Test Centre is 7 minutes from Jobstown. Manual single €53.27. 12-lesson EDT €587.95 at €49 per lesson. Six lessons €52.50 each. Automatic single €61.41, EDT auto €659.24. Pretest manual €183.63, auto €193.81.
