THIS feature, which has, according to the many appre.ciative letters we have received, proved invaluable to motor coach owners and their driver-employees during the season will have fulfilled its object in the course of a few 'weeks, when the curtain will be rung down on the 1922 season. The interest which has been aroused, and steadily maintained in it, leads us to the belief that the publication of official information, aided by maps concerning parking arrangements/has spared owners and drivers many of those little anxieties inseparable from motor coaching. For this reason, and because we endeavour to assist our readers in any reasOnable direetion, we shall continue throughout the winter months to keep in touch with local authorities, in order that we may be in a position to provide them with the latest information (either in the form which has proved
so useful this year, or in a form considered to be an improvement) concerning parking arrangements for visiting coaches in 1923. We published a list of the towns and cities which have been dealt with in connection with this feature in our last issue, and this week we add the names of Kelso and Bolton.
Ketso.—No special arrangements are made for visiting motor coaches in Kelso. No objection, however, is taken to drivers leaving such vehicles hi the Square, Coal Market, and Simon Square, or Belmont Place, arid no charge is made for parking.
BUITOPL—In Bolton an arrangement was made some time ago with the C.M.U.A. to garage vehicles in the Wholesale Market Place, which is a suitable place for parking, setting down and picking up passengers, This site holds about 50 vehicles, and the parking fee is 2s. 6d. Messrs. Bromilow and Edwards's garage in Bark Street as well as that of Messrs. W. Lee and Sons in Victoria Square are also available for a few motor coaches, and a fee of 3s. is charged at each place. The stands which are set aside for local motor coaches are also indicated on our map.
