GLASGOW — The pop-up driver’s licensing events are scheduled in Barren County this year. Here’s what you need to know.
Driver’s licenses are no longer issued from circuit court clerk offices in Kentucky. The state’s transportation cabinet maintains the issuance of licensing at various regional offices now. Other than at pop-up locations, residents must travel to regional offices or mail in documents – in certain circumstances – to renew and obtain their credentials.
Three pop-ups are planned in Barren County. They will all be held at Lera B. Mitchell Clubhouse located at 1214 South Green St. in Glasgow and are slated for Feb. 15, June 14, and Nov. 15.
Appointments are available no sooner than two weeks before the scheduled pop-up event. Schedule at this link.
Residents of the county where the pop-up is held may upgrade to a REAL ID license, request an 8-year license if they are due to renew, update their name or address, and renew a CDL credential.
Important information to know before your visit:
- Appointments are offered on a first-come, first-served basis and must be made online. Appointment holders will be sent a confirmation email and/or text message immediately. Additionally, appointment holders will receive a reminder email/text message four days prior to the event. If an appointment-holder cannot make an appointment, please cancel it. This will open the appointment up for others.
- Pop-up staff will contact all appointment holders through email or phone ahead of each event. It is important that appointment holders respond to staff when they receive calls or emails. Staff will confirm appointments, answer any questions, and ensure each customer has the proper documents to receive service.
- While Pop-up events are by appointment only, staff may be able to take a limited number of walk-ins at each event; however, there is no guarantee. Residents who choose to walk in at a pop-up event should communicate with staff who will indicate the possibility and/or wait time for service.
- Services requiring testing are unavailable at pop-up events and should be handled at a regional office or through the Kentucky State Police.
- The following forms of payment will be accepted: debit/credit cards, check, and money orders. The program is not accepting cash payments. A pricing list is available here.
- Skip a trip to a regional office or pop-up event and renew online or by mail! Most KY credential needs can be done from the comfort of your home. To learn more, click here.
