Raheny Driving Test Closure Sparks Frustration | Dublin News

Dublin’s Raheny driving test centre is shutting down temporarily starting September 18th, forcing nearly 3,000 learners—some waiting up to six months—to relocate to already-overwhelmed Killester. With wait times there averaging 14 weeks and over 1,380 people already queued, the move risks worsening delays rather than solving them. Frustrated drivers say it disrupts daily life, even affecting pet care. The RSA insists this is a temporary fix to boost capacity during construction, promising no cancellations and unchanged queue positions. But critics warn it’s just shifting the problem—and may not address the deeper backlog. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
