All auto emissions testing centers in Middle Tennessee (Sumner, Rutherford, Wilson and Williamson counties) will be closed on Saturday, July 2 and Monday, July 4 in celebration of Independence Day. All stations will resume testing on Tuesday, July 5 at their regular scheduled hours. “Planning ahead helps keep waiting to a minimum,” said Stuart Say, program manager for the Tennessee Vehicle Inspection program administrated by Envirotest Systems. “It’s a good idea to take vehicles on Wednesdays and Thursdays when testing volume is usually light and to avoid testing in the final days of the month.” Envirotest, the world’s leading provider of vehicle emissions testing and inspection, has a contract with the state of Tennessee to test automobiles for the improvement of air quality in four Middle Tennessee counties as required by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to meet the Clean Air Act. “Auto emissions testing has proven effective in helping Tennessee improve its air quality,” Say said. Normal hours of operation and testing center locations for Middle Tennessee are: Rutherford County (Murfreesboro), Sumner County (Gallatin), Williamson County (Franklin) and Wilson County (Lebanon) are open Monday and Tuesday 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., Wednesday through Friday 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Closed Sunday. Smyrna Station is open Monday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Tuesday through Friday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Closed Saturday and Sunday. |
