THEORY TEST CENTRES SET TO CLOSE IN AUGUST

Eleven theory test centres around the country are set to close at the end of August.

The DSA are closing centres in Basingstoke, Bath, Birkenhead, Clydebank, Colchester, Dunfermline, Durham, Motherwell, Runcorn, Solihull and Workington.

With all these closures, theory test centres will have to merge. Campaigners are concerned with the distance pupils will have to travel to find their nearest test centre, which could end up being over 30 miles away.

The DSA have stated that it is not cost effective to have two test centres in close proximity with spare facilities, hence the closures are taking place.

Practical test centres are not thought to be affected.
