The Texas Department of Public Safety announced this week that select offices across the state will be open for half days on select Saturdays through the end of October to serve additional customers needing to renew or replace their driver’s license or identification card (dates vary by location). Some offices may also issue new IDs.  

DPS’s Region 1, which includes Dallas-Fort Worth, has six offices scheduled to be open 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Oct. 12 and 26; the closest to Richardson are the Carrollton office (4600 State Highway 121) and the Garland office (350 W. Interstate 30). 

  

An appointment is required for the Saturday services and can be booked online at www.txdpsscheduler.com. Note that appointments fill quickly; DPS is asking customers to be sure to cancel their appointments if not needed so someone else can take their spot.
