Transport department services on the move in Dongara

Driver and vehicle licence renewals in Dongara will be processed at a new venue when Department of Transport services are relocated later this month.

The department is changing service providers and will move from the Shire of Irwin to the Dongara Community Resource Centre on Monday, June 29.

Drivers and vehicles executive director, Steve Mitchinson, said Dongara there would be no changes for residents in how their licensing business was carried out after the transition.

Mr Mitchinson said as well as assisting with licence renewals, the resource centre would also handle driver licence applications, vehicle registrations, change of address, WA photo card, temporary movement permit purchase, vehicle ownership transfer, buying optional vehicle licence plates, and recreational vessel transfers and payments.

Located at 11 Moreton Terrace, Dongara, the Dongara Community Resource Centre, will provide DoT services between 8.30am and 4.30pm on Mondays and Wednesdays, and between 8.30am and 2pm Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.

Customers can also conduct simple licensing business online using DoTDirect – including payments, licence and vehicle status enquiries, change of addresses and check their demerit points.
