Erie County to open four Auto Bureau locations by appointment only

The move is effective immediately, but does not include Learner's and CDL Permit testing

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Erie County Clerk Mickey Kearns announced Tuesday that four Erie County Auto Bureau locations are open for appointment-only service effective immediately.

However, appointments will not be accepted for Learner's Permit testing at this time. CDL Permit testing will resume in the coming days and will be by appointment only.

The locations reopening are:

  • The Southtowns Auto Bureau (located in the Southgate Plaza)
  • The Northtowns Auto Bureau (located in the Sheridan Plaza) 
  • The Downtown Auto Bureau (located in the Rath Building) 
  • The Cheektowaga Auto Bureau (located in the Urbandale Plaza)

“I am very excited to be reopening our facilities,” Kearns said. “We have been receiving hundreds of calls the past several weeks and I understand how important these services are to the public. Now that our region has entered Phase 3, we have the blessing from the State to move forward with certain services.”

Offices are authorized to limit transactions to three per visit. Only those conducting business will be allowed to enter the sites and no children under the age of 16 will be allowed.

Appointments can be made starting Wednesday here starting or by phone at 858-7450. Customers are asked to bring their own pens to complete any forms needed.

Hours are 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. You're asked to arrive no more than 15 minutes prior to your appointment or the office reserves the right to cancel it.
