Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias and his office have announced renovations coming to the Shelbyville Department of Motor Vehicles or ‘DMV’ starting July 19th through the 29th. During the makeover, a temporary location will continue to service resident’s vehicle needs at the Shelbyville Public Library, located at 154 N Broadway St. in Shelbyville.

Shelbyville’s new DMV is part of the Illinois Secretary of State’s Office’s ongoing efforts to modernize, combining both vehicle and driver services at a new, single service counter. This should lead to a reduction in wait times and cut out several existing steps altogether. Moving forward at these “One-Stop-Shop” DMV’s like the one in Shelbyville, drivers services and vehicle services employees will be cross-trained to provide both of these services at a single service counter. In addition to these changes, improved signage will look to create a more logical flow.

The renovated Shelbyville DMV will offer customers the same services like: applying for a ‘Real ID’ or drivers license, renewals, ordering of new license plates, vehicle registration, and more, but with a brand new look. Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias says that the Shelbyville DMV facility is among the first in the state to receive this overhaul giving the new space a modern feel while embracing new technology to improve efficiency.
