Local tips
Brandon's MPI Service Centre is at 731 1st Street, on the edge of downtown. MPI lists weekday hours of 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with road tests by appointment. The first thing to know is the railway: map data shows level crossings only about 120 metres from the centre, with more about 580 metres away, so approach every crossing ready to stop and never stop on the tracks. 1st Street has traffic lights at Park Avenue and McTavish Avenue, roughly 260 metres away, and again at Victoria Avenue. King George School is about half a kilometre away, so watch for school zones on weekdays. Map data shows a paid customer lot about 165 metres from the building. Our 14.2 km practice route runs along Rosser, Princess and Victoria avenues and the numbered streets west of downtown, including stretches of PTH 1A, so you'll get plenty of signalized intersections and grid-street turns.
