LINCOLN CITY – Oregon DMV is temporarily closing the Lincoln City office for several months due to operational and staff considerations. The office at 4422 NE Devils Lake Blvd, Suite 1. will be closed April 20 through June 29.
“A number of personnel changes happened simultaneously at our Lincoln City and Newport DMV offices,” said DMV Public Information Officer Chris Crabb. “While not ideal, this temporary pause will allow us to ensure we continue delivering high-quality service when we reopen June 30.”
The Lincoln City lead worker will join Newport’s two remaining full-time staff at 158 NE 5th Street until additional people are recruited, hired and trained.
Newport office hours:
- 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday
- 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday.
Starting June 30, the Lincoln City office will reopen with regular hours:
- 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday
- 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday
- Daily break from noon to 1:30 p.m.
Class C drive tests are offered by a third-party tester in Newport.
The number of positions DMV is allowed by law to hire is roughly the same as it was 25 years ago, yet the state’s population has grown by over 800,000 since then, with nearly all those people needing DMV services.
