News Release
Some Service New Brunswick centres to reopen for essential services only
20 March 2020
FREDERICTON (GNB) – A limited number of Service New Brunswick centres will reopen on Monday, March 23, for essential services only.
However, to help ensure the safety of staff and the public, New Brunswickers are urged not to visit a centre unless necessary. Customers are urged to go online as their first option.
The number of customers allowed into the centres at one time will be restricted and customers will be expected to use social distancing from other customers and staff. Cash payments will not be accepted. Customers looking to receive non-essential services will not be permitted to enter.
All licences, registrations, certificates and permits issued by the Province of New Brunswick (drivers’ licences, motor-vehicle inspections, and vehicle registrations) valid as of March 16, 2020, will remain valid until May 31, 2020, so those transactions will not be available at the service centres. This does not include those suspended by a court or by other authority under an act of the provincial government. However, vehicle registration renewals are one of the hundreds of services that can be completed online at any time.
Service New Brunswick is continuing to work on a plan to safely open more centres in the coming weeks. In the meantime, customers are encouraged stay home and to check what services can be conducted online. TeleServices is also available from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 1-888-762-8600.
The new operational hours for these locations will be 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. from Monday to Friday. There will be no Saturday hours.
