12 EDT lessons built for Saggart traffic
The 12 mandatory EDT lessons happen on Saggart roads. Saggart Village Road and Citywest Boulevard are in the mix from lesson one.
L1-2: Controls and Positioning
The newer estates between Saggart and Citywest have clean roads and clear markings. First lessons here give you space to set up seating position and get comfortable with the controls before any traffic pressure.
Learn about EDTL3-4: Direction Changes and Speed
Citywest Boulevard is wide enough to practise lane selection and speed building. The dual carriageway sections give you early experience of 80km/h driving in a controlled, well-marked environment.
EDT detailsL5-6: Complex Positioning and Hazards
Saggart Village Road tests your positioning judgement. Oncoming traffic near St Mary's Church means someone has to yield. Reading the situation early is the skill this road teaches.
Test preparationL7-8: Sharing the Road and Traffic
Fortunestown Lane has school zones and speed ramps. Children, cyclists, and pedestrians mix with estate traffic. Sharing the road at slow speed with unpredictable hazards is the focus here.
Test preparationL9-10: Complex Junctions and Multi-Lane Roads
The roundabouts on Citywest Boulevard come in clusters. Reading lane markings early, committing to exits, and holding position through multi-exit roundabouts are skills built on this road.

Saggart Village Road is narrow in the way old roads are narrow. Stone walls on one side, parked cars on the other, and oncoming traffic that sometimes means one of you stops. You learn patience and width judgement here from lesson one.
Citywest Boulevard starts where the village ends. Wide lanes, Luas crossings, and roundabouts in quick succession replace the single-track feel in under a minute. The change is abrupt and intentional in your training.
Fortunestown Lane runs east through residential estates and school zones. Speed ramps and pedestrian crossings build the observation habits the examiner expects. Old Bawn Road connects the area to Tallaght and is on test routes.
Slade Road south towards Slade Valley is single track with blind bends. It is not on test routes but it is excellent for building awareness on genuine rural road conditions.
