Newnan's Department of Driver Services Moves to Modern Facility

Georgia State Sign

Residents in Coweta County will now be served by a new, state-of-the-art Department of Driver Services (DDS) customer service center (CSC) in Newnan.

New Location Details

From July 25th, the DDS has shifted its operations to the Coweta County at Shenandoah complex, located at 87 Newnan Station Drive, Newnan, GA 30265. The new center's working hours are Tuesday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., with closures on Monday, Saturday, and Sunday.

A Fruitful Partnership

This move was made possible through a joint venture between Coweta County and the State of Georgia. While the county has provisioned the facility, the State will manage equipment and staffing.

"This new center gives us the capability to serve a greater number of customers in a very efficient manner. We are very pleased with the help and support we are receiving from Coweta County," expressed DDS Commissioner Spencer R. Moore.

Why the Move?

While the previous DDS location on Bullsboro Road served the citizens since 2006, the demand for a contemporary, upgraded center was evident. This new location not only provides an advanced environment but also streamlines the overall process for drivers.

Maximize Online Benefits

Residents can potentially save both time and money by accessing services online. By visiting the DDS website at www.dds.georgia.gov, they might qualify for discounted services, with most online transactions incurring a $5 discount.

Preparation for In-Person Visits

For those opting to visit in person, it's crucial to complete the mandatory paperwork before arrival. Every service, including renewals, replacements, and address changes, requires an application irrespective of the visitor's tenure in Georgia. This application is available at www.dds.georgia.com. If not filled out beforehand, individuals must complete it on the computer Tech Deck in the center before receiving a service number.

Benefits to the Community:

  • Efficient Services: The new center's design caters to a larger number of customers, expediting the overall process.
  • Modern Facility: The center is equipped with the latest technology, ensuring a streamlined experience.
  • Convenient Location: Situated in the Coweta County at Shenandoah complex, the location is more accessible to many residents.
  • Online Discounts: Residents can take advantage of digital services and enjoy cost savings.

The relocation underlines Coweta County's commitment to offering superior, efficient services to its residents, ensuring their needs are met in a modern, user-friendly environment.
