BostonThe Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) is announcing that it is extending designated Wednesday appointment hours for customers 75 years of age or older into October and to additional Service Center locations. This new customer service option began successfully in early September at the RMV Service Centers in Danvers, Leominster, New Bedford, South Yarmouth, Springfield and Watertown, and will continue to be offered on Wednesdays at these locations through October.

In October, eleven (11) additional Service Centers will begin to dedicate Wednesdays (hours vary by location) to customers 75 years of age or older whose driver’s license or ID card expire in September and October, including customers whose licenses/IDs were extended from March, April, May and June and are due to expire soon.  This new service option is being offered to provide customers with some flexibility while conducting transactions and to facilitate proper “social-distancing” protocols and procedures to keep customers and staff safe and healthy.  Information regarding the new service hours and additional resources for seniors can be found at https://www.mass.gov/info-details/older-drivers.

Senior hours are by appointment only and will be available beginning in October at the following locations:

  • Brockton (starting October 7)
  • Fall River (starting October 7)
  • *Greenfield (starting October 14)
  • Lawrence (starting October 7)
  • Martha’s Vineyard (starting October 7)

  • North Adams (starting October 7)
  • Pittsfield (starting October 7)
  • Plymouth (starting October 7)
  • Revere (starting October 7)
  • Worcester (starting October 7)

*The Greenfield RMV Service Center is scheduled to reopen on Tuesday, October 13th.

The RMV is introducing these service channel alternatives in light of the COVID-19 public health emergency to encourage ‘social-distancing’ in its Service Centers and prioritize other essential in-person needs by appointment-only.
