Today the Transport Secretary is announcing 10 new testing centres for HGV drivers, to help them get a COVID test before travelling to Kent.

The sites are at motorway service stations and truck stops across the country – they’ve been set up at the Information Advice Sites originally established to provide advice about the requirements for travelling to the continent after leaving the EU.

10 testing sites will be open from today (2 Jan), with a further 10 opening tomorrow (3 Jan).  You can find out the locations of these sites and follow updates here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/haulier-advice-site-locations

These sites are in addition to the support being offered by the Government to help firms establish their own testing centres at depots – which is still encouraged.
