DVLA closures plan for 39 offices

[eSteve]

Hi all,

just read about a proposal for the DVLA to close 39 DLVA offices by 2013. The list is given in the link and reproduced here:

Beverley in East Yorkshire, Birmingham, Bournemouth, Brighton, Bristol, Carlisle, Chelmsford in Essex, Chester, Exeter, Ipswich, Leeds, Lincoln, Borehamwood in Hertfordshire, Sidcup in south east London, and Wimbledon in south west London, Maidstone in Kent, Manchester, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Northampton, Norwich, Nottingham, Oxford, Peterborough, Portsmouth, Preston, Sheffield, Shrewsbury, Stockton-on-Tees, Theale in Berkshire, Truro, Worcester, Bangor in Gwynedd, Cardiff, Swansea, Aberdeen, Dundee, Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Inverness will also be affected.


So could be a longer jaunt for some (inc. me Bounrnmouth is on the list) unless you get your build finished PDQ (by 2013, that won't be me then!).
