The site will remain in the western metro area, moving to Lutheran Church of Hope, located at 925 Jordan Creek Parkway in West Des Moines. It will reopen there on Monday, August 10 at 8 a.m.

A second metro area Test Iowa site is available at Polk County River Place, 2309 Euclid Avenue in Des Moines. Both sites are open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Individuals who want to be tested should go to testiowa.com, complete an assessment and schedule an appointment at the site of their choice.
