Local tips

Schools are the first thing to plan for at A Plus Registry Services, which sits at 114 - 3604 52 Ave NW in Calgary. Map data places Simon Fraser School about 140 m away, a preschool about 150 m away and Sir Winston Churchill High School about 175 m away, so on weekdays expect students crossing and keep your speed down. Hours vary, so phone the registry at 403-288-3333 to confirm before you go; road tests are by appointment. The area is busy with signals: 31 sets of traffic lights lie within a kilometre, the closest about 200 m from the door, and there are 116 marked crosswalks within 800 m. Shaganappi Trail NW, about 340 m away, is posted at 70 km/h with five lanes, so pick your lane early and check your blind spot before changing. Our 34.3 km practice route heads along 52 Avenue NW and Brisebois Drive NW to John Laurie Boulevard NW, then uses 14 Street NW, 16 Avenue NW, Home Road NW and Shaganappi Trail NW. Use the ramps on this loop to practice matching traffic speed before you merge.

Common questions

A Plus Registry Services road test FAQ

What are the hours at A Plus Registry Services?

Alberta doesn't publish hours for each registry, and they vary. Call A Plus Registry Services at 403-288-3333 to confirm before you go. Road tests are by appointment.

How do I book a road test?

Book online through A Plus Registry Services's road test booking page (the "Official booking" button on this page, also listed on alberta.ca), or in person at the registry. You'll need your 9-digit MVID number, printed near the barcode on your licence, and any outstanding Government of Alberta fines must be paid first. Registry agents set their own road test fees, up to the maximum in the province's Registry Agent Product Catalogue, so confirm the fee when you book.

What do I need for the road test?

A vehicle that meets all legal and safety requirements, plus the documents listed on the registry's road test information sheet and in your confirmation letter. The information sheet also covers eligibility, fees, and the registry's cancellation and no-show policies.

How long do I need my learner's licence first, and how is the test marked?

You must have held a Class 7 learner's licence for at least one year and be at least 16 (with a parent's or guardian's written consent if you're under 18). You fail the Class 5 road test with more than 75 points, or automatically if you endanger someone, drive unsafely or break traffic laws. After you pass the road test and a vision test, you get a probationary Class 5-GDL licence, which you hold for at least two years.

Is a practice route available for A Plus Registry Services?

Yes. This page has a 34.3 km Class 5 practice test route that starts and ends at the centre, with a map and turn-by-turn directions.
