That's despite the centre only being established in September.
Leixlip has been revealed as the sixth busiest driving test centre in the country.
That's despite the centre only being established in September.
Waiting times there have also increased from 11 weeks to 12 weeks.
Currently, Naas only has a nine week wait.
It comes as Fianna Fáil and Kildare North TD Naoise O' Cearúil raised the future of the centre in the Dáil yesterday (12 November).
While addressing Transport Minister Darragh O' Brien, the Deputy called for Leixlip's centre to be placed on a "permanent footing" and for dedicated driving testers to be assigned locally.
Five testers had been temporarily assigned from Tallaght, but O' Cearúil said he wants them to assigned permanently.
"The Leixlip driving test centre has been massively successful, with over 1,800 tests being completed in the past two months alone.
"I appreciate the RSA are looking at a permanent location, possibly outside of the Springfield Hotel, but we need those testers assigned permanently," he insisted.
In his response, Minister O' Brien said that the RSA is working to secure a permanent site in Kildare, with the amount of testers in the county "reflective of a distribution model based on demand for driving tests".
