Newport’s Roads, Lesson by Lesson
About 9 km south-west of the CBD, Newport sits between Williamstown, Spotswood and Altona North, with Port Phillip Bay to the south. Learners here meet a little of everything: shopping strips, level crossings, school zones, freight trucks, narrow heritage streets and fast freeway access.
We use those conditions on purpose. You’ll start in quiet streets, then progress to the routes that build real, test-ready confidence – at your pace.

Shopping-strip driving, pedestrians and kerbside parking.
Sharing the road with trucks, intersections and roundabouts.
