That is longer than the middle centre, where the median wait was 12.4 weeks: 296 of the 315 centres in DVSA's table had a shorter median wait and 18 a longer one (our comparison of DVSA's figures; DVSA publishes no Great Britain row in this table). Over the 12 months to September 2026 this centre's monthly median ranged from 11.4 weeks (December 2025) to 25.1 weeks (January 2026), so one month is a guide, not a promise.
