It forms part of the department’s efforts to bring services closer to residents and workers. Motorists can now avoid the long queues at the driving licence testing stations (DLTCs) by paying their traffic fines and licence disc renewals at the Thuso House satellite.
“We know that Braamfontein is a busy area. The department realised that there was a need to take the service closer to the people. The main aim is to create a one-stop-shop where people can access multiple services all under one roof,” said Estrelita Esau, the Assistant Director of Martindale Bulk Licensing.
“This will bring services closer to the citizens and avoid the run around from department to department to access services,” said Essau.
The satellite office will follow the same operating hours as other licensing centres and will do cashless transitions only.
