Extended hours for Dudley Port testing site
Extended opening hours are now operating at the mobile testing unit (MTU) in Dudley Port to help people who work get slots.
The MTU was set up last week to identify cases of the Covid-19 variant first discovered in South Africa.
From March 24 the MTU will open 8am to 3.45pm for people without symptoms who live in certain parts of the DY4 7, DY4 8 and B69 2 postcode areas.
The area is loosely between Birmingham Canal in the north, New Birmingham Road in the south, Coneygree Road in the west and Vaughan Trading Estate in the east.
Those without symptoms who can get to the MTU are urged to go as soon as possible – you can walk-in without booking, but if you have to drive there you must book an appointment.
A booking system for drive-in appointments is available on the council’s website.
