'TRAFFIC delays at Newport, Mon,
were blamed for the failure of a Cardiff haulage contractor's business, when he appeared in the Cardiff Bankruptcy Court. Mr. William Ingram, a former trade union official, who was said to have liabilities of 1834 and only £22 assets, acquired a 7-ton diesel tipper costing £2,082 on hire purchase.
The lorry was first used for carrying shale from the Rhondda Valley to the steelworks at Lianwern. He anticipated delivering seven to eight loads a day, but owing to traffic congestion at Newport, and difficulty in obtaining material, he found that he could only manage about four loads.
Loading Bans Add to Transport Costs
A LL that a loading ban does is to transtAlfer the congestion behind the scenes, where it is just as serious even if it is conveniently out of public sight, said Mr. R. B. Brittain, Eastern Area chairman of the R.H.A., at the Ipswich sub-area dinner on Tuesday.
Whether the goods stay down a side turning or in a warehouse or on a loading bank, he said, they are probably in somebody's way. What is just as bad is that they are taking up precious vehicle and warehouse space and adding to the cost of the nation's transport.
INVISIBLE EXPORT
VISITORS from the United States, who provided 3,444 passengers, were the principal customers for Coras Iompair Eireann coach tours during the 1960 season. Britain provided 2,919 passengers, Canada 556, Australia 509, New Zealand 147, South Africa 130. Most European and some Asiatic countries were also represented.
WINDING-UP
A N order for the compulsory winding• up of Oats Haulage, Ltd., of Whitefriargate, Hull, was made by Mr. Justice Buckley in the Chancery Division on Monday on the petition of G. B. Finance Co., Ltd., of Bordesley Street, Birmingham.
