Test centre address: Lingard Lane, Bredbury, Stockport, Greater Manchester SK6 2QT
The Bredbury driving test centre is on Lingard Lane, near the M60 and the A560. It's in Stockport rather than Manchester itself, and it takes learners from Stockport, Bredbury, Romiley, Marple, Reddish, Denton and Hyde.
It's one of the busier centres in the area, with 10,636 car tests taken there in a year and a pass rate of 56%, above the 50% across Great Britain.
West Didsbury is about 6 miles away, with Cheetham Hill and Chadderton both about 7. They're compared further down.
How long is the wait at Bredbury driving test centre?
If you book at Bredbury on your own, the first week with a good choice of free dates is 24+ weeks away. That's about the same as most test centres.
You don't have to wait that out or keep checking yourself. Earlier dates come free as driving test cancellations, when other learners move or cancel theirs, and we watch for them on your behalf. We usually find learners an earlier test date within 1 to 2 weeks of signing up, and often within a few days. The test itself may still be a few weeks away, but it's earlier than the date you'd get booking on your own.
See how that compares with the wait at every test centre in the country.
