This is a standalone ICBC driver licensing office handling Class 5 and Class 7 road tests, knowledge tests, and motorcycle road tests. Marine Drive runs along the North Shore boundary here, so some map services list this exact address under neighbouring West Vancouver, but it's the same building serving North Vancouver.

Route breakdown

• Distance: 23.87 km
• Duration: about 41 minutes
• Turns: 7 total, 5 left and 2 right, plus two bear lefts and a highway ramp-and-exit sequence
• Longest stretch: the Highway 1 East ramp, 6.28 km

What to expect on the roads this route covers

The ramp onto Highway 1 East is the longest stretch by far at 6.28 km, a genuine motorway merge lasting several minutes before the exit toward Lynn Valley Road. Capilano Road carries the second-longest leg at 3.92 km. This is one of the few routes in this project with a real freeway merge and exit rather than just a primary or trunk road crossing.

Tips for this specific route

• Prepare for a genuine freeway merge and exit. The Highway 1 East ramp and exit 19 toward Lynn Valley Road are the real thing, not a quiet primary road.
• Settle into that 6.28 km highway stretch. It's the longest single leg of the entire route.
• Recognize Capilano Road as the second-longest leg. It runs 3.92 km.
• Expect a left-leaning turn pattern away from the highway. 5 of the 7 regular turns are lefts.
• Don't confuse the two bear lefts, onto Mountain Highway and Montroyal Boulevard, for full turns. Both are gentle direction changes.
