1. By car

From M1 J34 (Meadowhall) join the A630 Sheffield Parkway eastbound, exit Templeborough / Magna, follow A633 Rotherham Road, then left into Mangham Road and right onto Mangham Way; DVSA signage appears opposite the recycling plant. Arrive ≤ 10 min early—bays double as estate parking.

2. By public transport

• Bus X78 – Sheffield ↔ Doncaster every 10 min; alight Mangham Road / Greasbrough St. (5‑min walk).
• Bus 8 / 8A – Rotherham Interchange ↔ Kimberworth Park, stop Scrooby Lane (8‑min walk).
• Rail / Tram‑Train – Rotherham Central station 1.6 mi; bus X78 covers the leg in 7 min.

3. Cycling / walking

NCN Route 6 tracks the River Don; leave at Taylors Lane bridge, ride estate lanes to Mangham Way and lock up at reception hoops (Sustrans Route 6).

1. A630 Sheffield Parkway 60 → 40 → 30 cameras

Late‑fault: braking late past the 40 mph gantry then triggering the 30 mph camera at the petrol station.

Fix: scan two truck‑lengths ahead, wait at the wider passing place, re‑join when clear.

Late‑fault: hesitation when the road narrows to single file.

1. About Rotherham (Malta) from a Learner’s View

Shared industrial yard sees regular LGV manoeuvres. Examiners favour bay‑parking on‑site; parallel jobs often use Greasbrough Road beside the cricket club. First pull‑out is uphill into a 30 mph stream—practise brisk second‑gear roll‑offs and concise MSM checks.

2. What to Expect on the Day

Arrive 10 min early with your provisional. You’ll complete: eyesight 20 m → one show me, tell me → reversing manoeuvre (bay or parallel) → maybe emergency stop → ~20 min independent sat‑nav / sign‑led drive. Examiners watch lane discipline on Parkway slips and speed on the A633.
