THE Transport Tribunal, in a reserved judgment this week, partially allowed an appeal by H. R. D. Maconochie Ltd. and W. L. Roebuck Ltd. against a decision of the North Western deputy Licensing Authority granting a low-loader outfit on B licence to A. W. Barnes and Sons to carry "road constructional plant within 75 miles of base for Prestwick Macadam Ltd. only ".
When the appeal was heard the Tribunal was told that the traffic emanated in Yorkshire, while the application had to be made in the North Western
area where Barnes' base was. It was pleaded on behalf of the appellants that the application might not have been seen by Yorkshire-based operators. (The Commercial Motor, October 11.) In its judgment the Tribunal con sidered that whilst this was a point to be taken into consideration, it was not a ground for rejecting the application. After considering the evidence, the Tribunal felt that it would be proper to allow Barnes to carry plant for Prestwick Macadam Ltd. from one site to another when its low-loader was at the site from which the plant had to be moved. jt would not be right to allow the company to compete with existing hauliers by enabling it to run unladen to a site at which it had no work of its own in order to pick up Prestwick Macadam's plant. The. Tribunal decided that the B licence should be restricted to the carriage of plant for Prestwick "only from sites at which both are working to other sites at which both are working ", within 75 miles of base.
