Due to an issue with the booking website, people trying to book a test at the COVID-19 mobile testing facility in Torbay will need to Select Plymouth, this will still allow you to go to the Torquay facility.
If you are eligible (the eligibility criteria has changed: You can be tested if you are a keyworker, over 65 or do a job that you cannot do from home and you or anyone in your household is displaying COVID-19 symptoms) You will need to select Plymouth on the national web portal, but you can still get tested at the mobile testing site.
The facility can be found at the Coach Station, Lymington Road in Torquay, TQ1 4BD.
They will have your details once you book online and be able to test. You will need to provide photo ID.
The link for booking and more information is at https://www.gov.uk/apply-coronavirus-test
Car park closure – In order for testing to take place the coach station car park is closed to cars and pedestrians and we would ask people for their understanding while the temporary facility is in place.
