Local tips
Strathmore's Gold Key Registry Ltd is at 233 3 Ave, and the numbers around it point to pedestrians: map data counts 85 marked crosswalks within 800 m.

Westmount School is about 325 m away and Holy Cross Collegiate about 470 m away, so on weekdays watch for students and be ready to stop for anyone stepping into a crosswalk. There are nine sets of traffic lights within a kilometre, the nearest about 360 m away.

The Strathmore Fire Hall is about 555 m away, so be prepared to pull over for emergency vehicles. Our 77.1 km practice route starts on 2nd Street and 4th Avenue, uses Lakeside Boulevard to reach the Trans-Canada Highway, heads out on Range Road 242 and Highway 817, and finishes through Strathford Boulevard and Wheatland Trail. Practice smooth speed changes between the highway and the residential crescents.
Common questions
Gold Key Registry Ltd road test FAQ
What are the hours at Gold Key Registry Ltd?
Alberta doesn't publish hours for each registry, and they vary. Call Gold Key Registry Ltd. at 403-934-5959 to confirm before you go. Road tests are by appointment.
How do I book a road test?
Book online through Gold Key Registry Ltd.'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 Gold Key Registry Ltd?
Yes. This page has a 77.1 km Class 5 practice test route that starts and ends at the centre, with a map and turn-by-turn directions.
