A new £13.5m Driver and Vehicle Agency (DVA) Test Centre and two-storey administrative building in Mallusk will be delivered by Northern Ireland construction company Henry Brothers.

The firm will be responsible for both the design and build of the development, with the Test Centre featuring a ten lane vehicle testing area, including two pit-based inspection lanes for heavy goods vehicles, seven ramp-based lanes for light vehicles and a dedicated bay for motorcycle testing.

External works will include the development of a new internal road network, car parking and an off-road motorcycle driving test track to improve operational efficiency and accessibility.
