Important update about MOT and mid-year tests - Taxi trade updates

In an earlier notification we confirmed the arrangements by DVSA for MOT testing. MOT’s were extended for light vehicles expiring from the 30 March for 6 months. 

The councils approved garages are now open and adhering to the DVSA and social distancing guidelines. You’re now required to have your licensed vehicle tested.

Vehicle Owners

if your vehicle missed a mid-year test, MOT test, or if the test is due you must contact one of the approved garages and book your vehicle in for test. This is to ensure both your safety and that of the travelling public.
