Driving in NW10

What driving in Willesden teaches you

Across NW2 and NW10 the roads vary street to street, which is what a learner needs: quiet streets to get the basics right, a busy high road to test them, and major junctions to plan for.

The North Circular & Staples Corner

Staples Corner, where the A406 meets the A5 and the M1, is one of London’s busiest junctions — linked roundabouts, flyovers and heavy lorries. The North Circular runs as a fast dual carriageway alongside. Planning your lane and your exit early, well before you need them, is exactly what these roads teach.

Cricklewood Broadway & the A5

The Edgware Road corridor through Cricklewood and West Hendon is a busy, bus-heavy high road with parked vehicles, side turnings and pedestrians. Get your position and timing right here and the rest of NW10 comes easily.

The quiet streets

Around Chamberlayne Road, Neasden Lane and Roundwood Park the streets calm right down — 20mph residential roads that are the right place for first lessons, the manoeuvres and building confidence before the main roads.
