Completely crazy that a town the size of Bournemouth doesn’t have a test centre. Candidates unfairly disadvantaged having to drive to Poole for test and familiarisation lessons

Closing the Bournemouth test centre is madness at a time when the roads in the Bournemouth & Poole conurbation are the worst congested outside London.

I hope they keep the Bournemouth test centre open, but with the BCP almagination, I can't see them keeping it open.

Totally impractical decision for one of the most congested areas in the country. Check out https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/15924450.bournemouth-and-poole-are-the-uks-most-congested-towns-with-more-traffic-hold-ups-than-some-major-cities/ and https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/17781221.bcp-council-declares-climate-emergency/ - if there's a climate emergency the last thing we need is the deliberate creation of additional, unnecessary journeys to add to the mix!

The Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch area are far too large to be serviced by one test centre. Waiting time will surely become problematic too!

It is important to keep local test centres. Lessons are expensive as it is and increasing distances only makes it less accessible to some people who may need to learn to drive especially if they are struggling to get work or live in a rural area.

It’s too far to travel to Poole, and the roads busy and congested from where we live causing more expense to the learner. We still need a Bournemouth test Centre.

We losing too much in our area. It will make it harder for upcoming young people and adults if there is only one test centre and you have to wait long enough as it is.
