Local tips

Burton's driver examination office is at 23 Route 102, in the Burton Provincial Court building on the west side of the Saint John River across from Oromocto. It's open weekdays from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and road tests are by appointment. The Burton Bridge, posted at 80 km/h, is about 200 metres away, and Route 105 runs about 600 metres away at 90 km/h, so be ready for faster traffic as soon as you leave. Our 18.9 km practice route crosses into Oromocto along Route 102 and is mainly a roundabout workout. It goes through roundabouts on MacDonald Avenue, Miramichi Road and Route 102, with town driving on Waasis Road, Restigouche Road, Saint John Avenue, Mitchell Street, Scoullar Street, Neptunus Street and Howe Crescent. At each roundabout, slow down on the approach, yield to traffic already inside, count your exits and signal before you leave. Watch your speed coming off the bridge into the 50 km/h streets.

Common questions

Burton road test FAQ

What are the hours at Burton?

Service New Brunswick lists: Mon–Fri 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. Road tests by appointment. Offices close on statutory holidays, so check snb.ca before you go.

How do I book a road test?

Book online through Service New Brunswick's Driver Examination Online Booking Service (linked from gnb.ca's Driver licence testing page), or call TeleServices at 1-888-762-8600 (Monday to Friday 8:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.). The road test fee is $25 plus HST for each attempt, and you can take the test in English or French.

What do I need to bring?

A licensed driver with at least three years of experience and a valid Class 5 (or equivalent) licence to come with you, your valid learner's permit, a signed and valid vehicle registration, proof of valid insurance for the vehicle, your driving school certificate if you have one, and proof of payment for the test. Bring paper copies; only the proof of insurance can be digital. If anything is missing, you'll be turned away.

How long do I need my learner's licence first, and what if I fail?

New drivers take this road test to move from Class 7 Level 1 (learner) to Level 2. You must have held Level 1 for at least one year, or eight months if you completed a recognized driver education course (green certificate required). The wait is waived if you've been fully licensed before. If you don't pass, you book and pay for another attempt.
