PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Driving Tests: Urban Areas (9 February 2021)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps he is taking to ensure that driving test centres are based in town centres.

Asked by:
Sir John Hayes (Conservative)

Answer

The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency keeps its estate under review to ensure site locations are fit for purpose and provide customers with a value for money service.

Practical test centres are, ideally, located away from congested city centres in suburban and business estates, with access to a meaningful network of roads used for test routes, and are not reliant on accessibility of public transport.
