TIPPERS dominate the scene in the I West Midlands this week and, in particular, a spate of new B-licence applications for work in connection with the contract being carried out by Conway's Sand and Gravel, Ltd., on the Birmingham/Preston Motorway. There arc five such applications by S. Lehane, R. Matthews, J. H. Walker, A. A. Wells and W. 0. Fry.
Securicor (Midlands), Ltd., have applied to hire five vehicles to carry cash (not valuables) within 50 miles of Coventry. These applicants were recently successful in an application to operate four vehicles from Nottingham.
In the Metropolitan area there appears a bid by another security firm-Hercules Escort Service, of Forest Gate-for a van with the user "money and valuables within 10 miles." Also in this area is a substantial application by Beck and Pollitzer Transportation, Ltd., of Southwark Bridge, for eight additional A vehicles.
