Strang Boulevard is one of the trickier Bronx road test sites thanks to its hills and curves. Get the real route details, difficulty rating, and scheduling shortcuts.
Situated on the south side of Strang Avenue between East 233rd Street and Baychester Avenue, this site sits in a bustling commercial-residential zone. Heavy traffic from commercial trucks, frequent pedestrian crossings, and busy intersections make Strang one of the more demanding Bronx locations.
Roads are well-marked with clear signals, but the congestion level adds real pressure. Best for drivers who have logged significant practice hours in moderate to heavy traffic.
How to get there: Take Bruckner Expressway North to New England Expressway exit at Baychester Avenue. Follow Baychester to Strang Avenue. Turn left at Strang Ave and join the line.
Public transit: 5 train to Baychester Avenue station. Bx30 and Bx16 MTA bus routes serve the area.
The road test at Strang covers a compact loop through Bronx streets. A NYS DMV examiner rides with you and scores on a point system — 30 points or fewer is a pass.

What experienced drivers and instructors recommend for this specific location.

Try driving around 1935 Strang Avenue, between Grace Avenue and Edson Avenue, Bronx, NY 10466 a few times before your test to get familiar with the area. Just note: you cannot practice within the actual DMV road test area at any time - stick to nearby streets with similar conditions.
