Mr Campbell Adamson will be opening a CM conference which is devoted to transport decision-making for the decade of the Seventies. A paper on fleet engineering will deal with some pressing current problems as well as long-term planning of vehicle replacement, workshop staffing and incentive schemes. The second paper of the day, by Leicester City Transport's general manager, will examine some urgent changes in priorities for psv operators, particularly in urban areas; while the head of consultancy for British Road Services Ltd will be explaining how new techniques can be called into play to help solve stubborn operational problems and to plan more economic and efficient services.
One business session will be devoted to a debate between two prominent transport lawyers, discussing—with examples—such subjects as whether own-account operators should take the plunge into hire-and-reward, and on what terms. This debate will be thrown open to the floor.
