Town & Country MO Driver’s Ed Classes
If you call the city of Town & Country home, then you know it is a mostly residential area with Clayton Road as its main east-west road and Mason Road as its main north-south road. It also has Manchester Road, or highway 100, touching a little bit of its southern city limits.
Two major highways and one secondary highway intersect near or in the city of Town & Country: highway 141, highway 40, and highway 270. Each of these highways, their interchanges and the roads that intersect them offer beginning drivers who live in Town & Country the perfect opportunity to practice their skills in merging with highway traffic, maneuvering on a highway, and changing from one highway to another, all close to home. Not to mention the number of residential areas and handful of small-scale commercial shopping areas in which to negotiate a parking lot and streets of varying speed limits and number of lanes.
Town & Country, which became a fourth-class city in 1974, has several private school campuses in its city limits: Maryville University, The Principia, Visitation Academy, Christian Brothers College High School and Westminster Christian Academy. Driving around a school campus offers additional challenges of watching for pedestrians, reading road signs specific to a school campus, and navigating around a campus where roads may have special closure times.
Believe it or not, the city was originally known as Altheim in 1886 before being incorporated as the village of Town & Country in 1950. In 1974 it was incorporated as a fourth-class city, which means the city had between 500-2,999 residents as of that year.
