The proposed closure of the only driving test centre in Tameside has caused 'immense anxiety' for local driving instructors and pupils, MPs for the borough have said.
Jonathan Reynolds, Angela Rayner, and Andrew Gwynne have written a joint letter to the DVSA objecting to plans to close down the Hyde centre in April.
It comes after driving instructor Jim O'Connor, who runs Strive To Drive in Tameside, launched and online petition urging the DVSA to rethink the plans - with more than 3,000 people having signed it so far.
