Test centre address: 40 Cannock Street, Troon Industrial Estate, Leicester LE4 9HT

The other Leicester centre, Wigston, is about 6 miles south, and Loughborough is about 10 miles away. Both are compared further down.
How long is the wait at Cannock Street driving test centre?
If you book at Cannock Street 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.
