VOSA has announced the opening of the 300th Authorised Testing Facility (ATF). The first ATF opened in January 2010 and now over 50% of tests are conducted at non-VOSA sites.
VOSA believes that ATFs offer two main benefits to operators:
- Where vehicles are tested at the site of maintenance, you tend to see higher first-time pass rates.
- They are often located in closer proximity to an operator’s base meaning less travelling and less down time for vehicles.
