You at the OPC itself or somewhere else? I did one set of assessments at Watford FC then another at the OPC.
There is a travelodge within 5 mins walk of the football club and literally 2 mins from the OPC offices. A big multi storey car park next to it that you got a discount on parking if you stayed at travelodge (you ask reception at hotel).

good luck and hope this helps

This is the travelodge and distance to OPC. The car park is the citipark mentioned in other comments

 

[Venna1]

Mine said the same on my email but was only stage one on the day when I turned up, I’d be very surprised if they do both stages in the same day as it’s a lot to do.

This is what we've been told expect:

"If you arrive after the start time then you will not be able to take part in the assessment centre and you will be turned away. Some practice test materials are attached to help you prepare. It’s recommended that you focus on the practice test materials for the following tests which you will sit on the day:



The Trainability for Rules and Procedures Test Part 1 and 2
The Group Bourdon Concentration Test
The Driver Fault Finding Test (DFFT)
The Test of Everyday Attention for Occupational Assessment (TEA-Occ)
The WAFV Vigilance Exercise
The ATAVT Perception Test
The 2-Hand Co-ordination Test
The Situational Judgement Exercise
The Multi-Modal Interview (MMI)"
