Local tips

Wide roads are the main challenge at West-End Registries, 10011 170 St in Edmonton. 170 Street NW, five lanes at 60 km/h, runs about 50 m from the office, 100 Avenue NW is about 70 m away, and Stony Plain Road NW, also five lanes, about 160 m away. On roads this wide, pick your lane early, signal, and do a shoulder check before every move. Map data counts 38 sets of traffic lights within a kilometre, the nearest about 85 m away, and 41 marked crosswalks within 800 m. St. Thomas More Catholic Junior High School is about 760 m away, so watch for students on weekdays, and Edmonton Fire Station 23 is about 975 m away.

Common questions

West-End Registries road test FAQ

What are the hours at West-End Registries?

Alberta doesn't publish hours for each registry, and they vary. Call West-End Registries at 780-483-8211 to confirm before you go. Road tests are by appointment.

How do I book a road test?

Book online through West-End Registries'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 West-End Registries?

Yes. This page has a 25.5 km Class 5 practice test route that starts and ends at the centre, with a map and turn-by-turn directions.
