Learning to drive in Haggerston
Traffic filters near the junctions with Kingsland Road, including on Lee Street, Dunston Street and Haggerston Road, stop cars cutting through, and many are camera-enforced. Most journeys use Kingsland Road and the other main roads instead, so reading 'no through route' signs early is a habit worth building.
Hackney has also introduced dozens of School Streets, where roads outside schools close to traffic at drop-off and pick-up times. They're easy to miss if you're not looking, and driving into one when it's active can mean a fine.
Kingsland Road itself is busy with buses, cyclists and people crossing, which is ideal for learning to anticipate. Whether you're a student, work in the creative industries or are simply ready to learn, lessons fit around you in manual or automatic.
