More Motor Vehicle
Commission centers across New Jersey have closed after employees tested
positive for COVID-19, and one center plagued with frequent closures,
Eatontown, is once again in the dark.
Nov. 11 was
the last shutdown in Eatontown, and that lasted about two weeks. They reopened for
a short time, and Thursday evening, word came in of another positive test
result among an employee – causing the process to start all over again.
The
employee who tested positive was last inside the facility Nov. 30.
The Randolph
licensing center is also closed today, bringing the total number of MVC
locations shut down to 11. The employee who tested positive was last in the
center Nov. 27.
Road test
operations and the inspection stations remain open at both the Randolph and
Eatontown locations.
Five of the
11 currently closed centers are scheduled to reopen next week. The Eatontown
location is expected to open again Dec. 15.

West Deptford Regional/Licensing Center – Tuesday,
