Campbell & Lawrence County Driver Service Centers to Consolidate

NASHVILLE --- The Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security today announced the consolidation of the Campbell County and Lawrence County Driver Service Centers as part of an overall effort to improve effectiveness and efficiency with the state’s driver license services. 

Effective at the close of business on December 28, 2012, the Campbell County driver service center, located at 111 Ellison Road in LaFollette, will merge with the station in Anderson County, located at 704 North Charles G. Seivers Blvd., in Clinton.

Meanwhile, the Lawrence County driver service center, located at 235 East Gaines Street in Lawrenceburg, will merge with the station in Maury County, located at 1701 Hampshire Pike in Columbia. Both facilities in Campbell and Lawrence Counties will cease all operations as of that date.

“As part of our customer focused government plan, we made the decision to merge various driver service centers across the state to enhance customer service and alleviate customer wait times. The staff will relocate to the operating centers, and ultimately, will better equip us to service the citizens of each county impacted,” Commissioner Bill Gibbons said.

The Anderson County Driver Service Center is open from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. (EDT), while the Maury County Driver Service Center business hours are from Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. (CDT). Both facilities are full-service centers, offering driver license and identification card issuance, motor vehicle records, vision testing, knowledge and skills testing, and handgun permits.
