In effort to balance its $100 million budget deficit, the state of Arizona has announced it will permanently close nine MVD offices throughout the state.

What does this mean for you? It means that if you have been arrested for DUI and have to schedule an appointment with the MVD, whether to request an administrative hearing or to get your license reinstated after its been suspended, you could spend hours waiting in line or have to wait several days or weeks before you can get an appointment.

State legislators have been trimming state agencies’ budgets left and right, and funding for the transportation department is no exception. The department’s funding was reduced by 25%.

Two offices will be closing in the Valley: the office on 27 ^th and Washington streets in central Phoenix and the office on Sossaman Road and Main Street in East Mesa. The other seven offices scheduled to close include Ajo, Benson, Bisbee, Fredonia, Kearny, Superior, ad Willcox.

The closures will likely hit people in the central Phoenix area the hardest, as that office serves nearly 14,000 people per month.
