The Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles will temporarily close eight branches in the month of October as the entity continues to experience staff shortages. Plymouth is one of those branches, along with West Lafayette, North Meridian in Indianapolis, Midtown in Indianapolis, Tipton, Brazil, Danville, and New Albany. The Sullivan branch will adjust its hours to operate Tuesdays and Thursdays in October.
This is the second month that the BMV has had to shut down branches due to staffing shortages.
BMV Commissioner Peter L. Lacy stated that the employees of temporarily closed branches will be reassigned to support nearby locations for the month.
At the same time, the BMV has received an increased number of residents applying for positions. Teams are hiring applicants to fulfill customer service vacancies in locations throughout the state.
