Hi

Apologies if this post does not belong in this forum.

I have the address for my Mod 1 -
Uxbridge MPTC
Driving Standards Agency
Unit 7, Trade City Business Park
Off Cowley Mill Road
UXBRIDGE
UB8 2DB

However, when I try to find it on Google maps for directions, I get some house off a road that does not read Cowley Mill Road.

Please please please help me! I have this test tomorrow and can't seem to find it. If anyone who reads this post knows of this exact location then please tell me how to get there from Uxbridge high street Sad

Thank you!

These MPTC seem to have been built since the Google photo's and sattellite images were done.
I tried looking for my local MPTC (Lincoln) a while ago,and all google showed me was un built on land.
If the DSA say that's where they are,then that's where they are.mate.

Its bang opposite royal mail depot.

UB8 2GG

go there, On google , it looks like the site hasnt been built yet according to streetview.
That post code goes to post office depot place. get to a mini roundabout, and go left and follow road round and your seel the mod 1 test site.

Hope that helps . I did my Mod 1 there, good examiners. Good luck!

Thanks, but here's the cause of the confusion - the confirmation email and the DSA site reads a different post code - UB8 2DB! Confused I'm so confused...

Thank you both, it turned out to be 2GG, as opposed to what the DSA (mis)informed me.

Much appreciate it Smile

The DSA said UB8 2DB; but guess what - they were miles wrong Wink

Thanks to the other two posters here, I found the correct address - very different to what every DSA link directed me to.

Just goes to show, doesn't it. Laughing
