ATF lane is live at Sleafrd
Lindsay Powell • 28 April 2026
Manchetts Sleaford site has undergone considerable development since onboarding in 2023, and has culminated with the ‘go live’ of the ATF lane. A new pit was sunk, rising brake roller technology installed, and then the wait for DVSA approval began. Branch Manager, Aaron Woods, had extensive consultations with the ministry to ensure all requirements were met and the first test took place in January. The DVSA testers who have since been on site have been very complimentary about the facilities and excellent organisation from administration through to test presentation .
The in-house ATF lane will ultimately remove the need to travel up to 30 miles for MOTs and provide better service to our customers and the MAN network.
