Effingham Driver Services Facility Relocating from Kirby Building to Lincolnland Building

Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White announced Thursday that the Effingham Driver Services facility will relocate. The office will move from the Kirby Building at 444 S. Willow to the Lincolnland Building at 1901 S. Fourth, Suite 2. 

The new office, which will also serve as a CDL facility, is approximately 3,040 square feet, about 1,264 square feet larger than the current facility.

The last day of service at the current location will be at the end of business on Tuesday, December 13, and services will begin at the new location on Wednesday, December 21. A statement from the Secretary's office indicates that closing on the 13th will provide the time needed to ensure the equipment, computers, and phone lines are in working order on December 21.

Secretary White said, "This new facility is conveniently located. It is much larger than the facility on Willow Street and has an upgraded CDL facility that will serve Effingham and the surrounding communities well."

White's office has been working with the new landlord who, as part of the 10-year lease agreement, is in charge of making necessary modifications to the building. These modifications, which the Secretary's office says are standard when opening a Driver Services facility at a new site, are designed to maximize the facility's traffic flow and efficiency.
