Local tips
Airdrie Registry, at 128 Edmonton Trail NE, sits only about 110 m from the Queen Elizabeth II Highway (Highway 2), a three-lane road posted at 110 km/h, with a ramp about 265 m away. Call 403-948-6018 before your visit, because hours vary and road tests are by appointment only. George McDougall High School and École Airdrie Middle School are both about 470 m from the office, and Jensen Elementary School is about 630 m away, so slow down and watch for students on school days. Map data also shows 21 sets of traffic lights within a kilometre, the nearest about 610 m away. At 53.8 km, our practice route is a long one. It leaves on Edmonton Trail NE and 1 Avenue NE, follows 8 Street SW to Yankee Valley Boulevard SW, then takes Highway 2 south to Township Road 262 and the rural range roads before returning through Main Street S, Railway Avenue SW and Kingsview Boulevard SE. Practice your highway merges here: match the speed of traffic on the ramp, check your blind spot and signal early.
Common questions
Airdrie Registry road test FAQ
What are the hours at Airdrie Registry?
Alberta doesn't publish hours for each registry, and they vary. Call Airdrie Registry at 403-948-6018 to confirm before you go. Road tests are by appointment.
How do I book a road test?
Book online through Airdrie Registry'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 Airdrie Registry?
Yes. This page has a 53.8 km Class 5 practice test route that starts and ends at the centre, with a map and turn-by-turn directions.
