Taxi and private hire medicals for Tameside drivers

Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council asks taxi and private hire drivers for a medical to the DVLA Group 2 standard. One of our GMC registered GPs carries it out and fills in the council's form at the same appointment.

Applying to Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council

We keep Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council's medical form, so you don't need to bring one.

Choose Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council when you book and we'll have the form ready. If the council has sent you a letter, bring that too.

The medical takes about 15 minutes and costs £55 with the eye test. You can pay online when you book or at the clinic.

Getting here

Ashton Old Road runs from Openshaw straight out to Ashton-under-Lyne, so the clinic is on the road most Tameside drivers already use to come into Manchester.
