Safe Urban Driving Training
We offer Safe Urban Driving (SUD) training in collaboration with Transport for Greater Manchester and EnRoute training. Our approved trainers deliver this course for HGV, LGV and PCV drivers as part of their periodic training.
The course, delivered by our colleagues at Enroute Training, is one of many accredited training courses available at NCA Academy. Enroute are licensed by the Fleet Operators Recognition Scheme (FORS) to deliver this ‘off the shelf’ course. The course covers the requirements for managing Work Related Road Risk (WRRR). Additionally, it includes the Construction Logistics and Cyclists Safety (CLOCS) scheme.
All SUD courses take place at The Barn Countryside Centre, Philips Park, Whitefield, M45 7QJ. Course times are 8.00am–4.00pm. Light refreshments are provided but please bring your own lunch for the day.
Please note: Drivers MUST bring their driving license with them to the training course for registration and identification purposes.
Driver CPC upload charges are included in the £25 course fee.
Please do not book onto a SUD course if you have attended a course in the last 12 months.
The SUD course covers the following modules:
Module 01: In-class Theory
- The changing streetscape.

- Sharing the road.
- Safety equipment.
Module 02: On-cycle Practical
- Exchanging places – driver attitude and perception.

There is a practical element to the course that all participants MUST take part in. Please flag any issues in this regard with your tutor on arrival. Bikes and helmets will be available to borrow.
