Local tips
The King Edward Street Service Centre is at 125 King Edward Street East in Winnipeg's St. James industrial area, near the airport. MPI lists weekday hours of 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Saturday road test appointments are offered in Winnipeg. King Edward Street is part of Route 90, with three to four lanes and a 70 km/h limit, so merging and lane changes start as soon as you leave the lot. The nearest traffic lights are at Ellice Avenue, about 160 metres away, with more at Berry Street and Century Street within about 300 metres. Stevenson-Britannia School is about 640 metres from the centre. Our 11.3 km practice route is the shortest in Winnipeg. It heads east along St. Matthews Avenue and Ellice Avenue into the West End and comes back via Sargent Avenue and Wellington Avenue, so expect a mix of fast arterial driving and tighter residential intersections.
