Where is the Theory Test Centre Coventry?

The Coventry Theory Test Centre is located in the Regus building on the Second Floor, 9 Little Park Street, Coventry, CV1 2UR. Simply head to the main door and use the buzzer to let them know you’ve arrived.

The Theory Test Centre is conveniently located in the heart of Coventry city centre, making it a fairly straightforward option for anyone travelling in from surrounding towns and villages, as well as those who live locally.

If you’re travelling by train, Coventry Railway Station is within easy walking distance, as is Pool Meadow Bus Station if it’s more convenient to get a bus. 

Top tip: Please ensure you check the address on your booking confirmation before setting off. Theory test centres can change location, so your booking confirmation is the best place to check you’re heading to the right venue.

And, of course, we’d recommend giving yourself plenty of time to find the centre, particularly if it’s your first visit to Coventry.

Where to park for the Theory Test Centre Coventry

If you’re driving into Coventry for your theory test, there are a few parking options nearby.

Limited on-road parking is available outside the test centre – which may be helpful, particularly if you have an early test time. If you do use a paid space, remember to pay using the Ringo app where applicable.

Alternatively, Salt Lane Car Park is a convenient and close-by option in the city centre. It’s open 24 hours and is accessed via Little Park Street, with the test centre just a short walk away.

Remember to allow a little extra time to find a parking space and walk to the test centre. The last thing you need before your theory test is to be rushing through the city!
