The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) has commissioned a new Ultra Service Centre in North Dayi, bringing high-quality licensing and vehicle registration services closer to residents of the area. The facility becomes the tenth DVLA office commissioned since Mr. Julius Neequaye Kotey assumed office as Chief Executive in eleven months.

Located in the Volta Region, the North Dayi Ultra Service Centre will serve the District and its surrounding communities. The facility forms part of DVLA’s broader national agenda to decentralise operations and enhance access to services across the country.

Speaking at the commissioning ceremony, the Chief Executive, Mr. Julius Neequaye Kotey, assured residents that the new centre is fully equipped to deliver the complete range of DVLA licensing and vehicle-related services, eliminating the need for long-distance travel.

                                     
“You no longer have to travel elsewhere to access our services. Simply come with your documents, and everything will be handled right here. I assure you that there will be no intermediaries to exploit you, and all charges will strictly adhere to the approved ultra  fees,” he said.

Mr. Kotey further disclosed that the Member of Parliament for North Dayi has provided a 10 per cent support allocation to ease service delivery for constituents, noting that this is the first time such an initiative has accompanied the commissioning of a DVLA office.

He also announced the introduction of a new RFID-embedded number plate system, adding that all newly issued registration plates from the North Dayi office will bear the prefix “ND.”

The Member of Parliament for North Dayi, Hon. Joycelyn Quashie, expressed profound appreciation to DVLA management for siting the ultra facility in the constituency.
“There were many places this Ultra DVLA office could have been located, but it was brought here. We are praying for the Chief Executive for more opportunities so that when good things are shared, North Dayi will always be remembered. This is just the beginning of greater things to come,” she remarked.

The District Chief Executive, Mr. Ernest Adevor, also commended the DVLA and the Member of Parliament, noting that the facility aligns with the government’s broader national development agenda and will significantly improve service delivery in the municipality.
