and Scotland
L'ARES on bus services operated in I the East Midland Traffic Area by the Lincolnshire Road Car Co., Ltd., were increased last Sunday.
The application was granted in full (see The Commercial Motor, March 25, for details), with the exception of a proposed 10 per cent. increase in seasonticket rates in respect of the new 5d. and 6d. fares. it was announced that the cost of these would be subject to the normal consequential increase in season-ticket rates.
The company's case was based on an annual increase of £82,500 in running costs and on a decline in passengers.
Scunthorpe Town Council, who decided not to oppose the application, considered the company had "a firstclass case" for higher fares.
Following increases recently granted to the West Yorkshire Road Car Co., Ltd., the York-West Yorkshire Joint Committee and the Pullman Bus Co., Ltd., have applied to the Yorkshire Licensing Authority to bring their fares into line.
The Scottish Licensing Authority announced this week that most of the fare increases proposed by the Scottish bus group had been granted. The exceptions are the 4d., 4/cl. and 5d. rates, which the Authority refused to raise.
It was reported fast week that the increases had been granted in principle. The new rates will come into operation on Monday. More than 2,100 services will be affected: The group comprises Scottish Omnibuses, Ltd.; Western S.M.T. Co., Ltd.; Central S.M.T. Co., Ltd; W. Alexander and Sons, Ltd., and David Lawson, Ltd.
