Your 12 EDT lessons in Priorswood from Glin Road to Raheny
Estate roads, Priorswood Road speed ramps, Clonshaugh HGV traffic, and Tonlegee Road in the rush. All 12 lessons done locally.
L1-2: Controls and Positioning
First lessons use Glin Road and the quieter Priorswood estate streets. The on-street parking forces immediate mirror and width awareness. Speed is low, pressure is low, but the habits you form here carry through every lesson.
Learn about EDTL3-4: Direction Changes and Speed
Priorswood Road is long enough to introduce proper speed management. You practice signalling exits, timing the speed ramps, and reading the bus stops before you need to react to them.
EDT detailsL5-6: Complex Positioning and Hazards
Belcamp Lane leads you into the Northern Cross development where roundabout entry and lane discipline at new junctions is the focus. Road markings are clearer here, which helps with positioning before more demanding roads.
Test preparationL7-8: Sharing the Road and Traffic Systems
Clonshaugh Road introduces HGV traffic heading to the industrial estate. Holding your lane beside large vehicles without drifting is a specific skill, and Clonshaugh is the right road to practise it without motorway pressure.
Test preparationL9-10: Complex Junctions and Speed
Tonlegee Road in the morning rush is sustained, fast, and unforgiving of hesitation. You learn to join it cleanly from side roads and maintain a safe following distance while traffic presses from behind.

The final lessons trace the route through Coolock and along the Howth Road corridor to Raheny test centre. Night practice on Priorswood Road itself, with parked cars and bus stop lighting, rounds off your preparation.

Priorswood Road is the first real road you tackle. The speed ramps come every 30 to 50 metres and the parked cars narrow your lane constantly. It sounds like a lot for a learner, but that rhythm of brake, observe, accelerate becomes natural quickly.
Glin Road is tighter still. On-street parking forces you to judge who has priority in real time. These estate roads are where your width judgement and mirror habits get built properly.
Clonshaugh Road changes the pace. Commercial vehicles heading to the industrial estate and the airport corridor share the road, and you learn to hold your position beside HGVs without drifting. Belcamp Lane takes you into the newer Northern Cross development with fresh road markings and roundabouts.
Tonlegee Road is the main artery south to Coolock and Raheny. At peak times it carries sustained traffic flow, and your later lessons use it to build the confidence you need for the Raheny test centre routes.
