Test Centres Near Murrayfield

Instructors Top Tips for Driving in Murrayfield, Edinburgh

Murrayfield Stadium regularly attracts huge crowds for international rugby league fixtures, as well as music concerts by the likes of Robbie Williams. These events bring a significant volume of foot traffic as well as vehicle traffic, so if you live nearby it would be wise to plan your journeys to avoid Murrayfield at these times.

The tram route connecting the airport and the centre of Edinburgh runs through Roseburn and Balgreen, which has helped to reduced traffic volumes a little – but negotiating your way around the trams brings it own hazards, particularly at nearby Haymarket where the tram tracks are laid on the road itself. Your instructor will give you tips and advice on how to handle driving in the vicinity of Edinburgh’s trams.

Pupils often wish to put in extra practice on parking manoeuvres in between driving lessons, and there are a few locations that lend themselves to this quite well. Probably the best spot to practise parking, particularly reversing into or out of a bay parking space, is the nearby Craigleith Retail Park, located on South Groathill Ave. You may wish to avoid peak periods as the centre can become quite busy.

Safety Cameras Nearby

Murrayfield and surrounding areas are home to a number of safety cameras, both Red Light Cameras designed to enforce stop signals, and Fixed Speed Cameras designed to enforce the maximum speed limit.

It is obviously essential that you obey the correct speed limit at all times, but you should take greater care at hotspots where safety cameras have been installed, because they may be areas where other road users are tempted to drive faster or run red lights.
