A DRIVING theory test centre in Harlow will close from next month, it has been revealed.

The centre, inside in Cambridge House, Cambridge Road Harlow will shut on September 3.

The DVSA has insisted "practical test centre locations are not affected by the changes we are making to our theory test centre network."

The nearest centre to Harlow is Hertford where a new centre will be available from 6 September.  

A spoksman from the DVSA, said: "The DVSA is changing the way the theory test is provided in England, Scotland and Wales.

"From September 6, the number of theory test centres in Great Britain will increase from 180 to 202 and many theory test centres will move location.

"From September 6 the theory test will look slightly different on screen but the structure and content of the test itself will not change."
