Mobile testing units (MTUs) are located across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire at temporary locations to help increase access to coronavirus testing.
If you have symptoms of coronavirus including a high temperature, a new continuous cough or a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste, you should get tested as soon as possible.
Providing there is local availability, you can book in for a test at a mobile testing site, a drive-in or walk through site or for a home testing kit by calling 119 or via the online government portal.
There is a fixed testing drive-through site located at County Hall car park on Loughborough Road in West Bridgford, Nottingham.
Three new walk-through local testing sites have also been confirmed in Nottingham. The testing sites can be found at Forest Park and Ride in Nottingham City, Duke Street car park in Bulwell and Southglade Leisure Centre car park in Bestwood.
The test involves taking a swab of the nose and the back of the throat, which can be done by yourself or by a tester.
You will receive your test result via text or email within 72 hours. If your test is positive, you must self-isolate immediately. For more information on receiving your result, visit the NHS website.

UPDATE: Due to a rise in COVID-19 cases across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire, we are reviewing how and where we deploy mobile testing facilities. Therefore the locations for mobile testing units beyond Sunday 8th November are not yet confirmed. This is to ensure mobile testing units can be sent to specific areas in response to local outbreaks and where they are most needed. Please check this webpage regularly for further updates.
