AN appeal by Morton, Transport (Coventry), Ltd., against a decision of the West Midland Licensing Authority who had refused their application for 12 articulated vehicles and trailers on B licence and had granted three vehicles instead, was refused by the Transport Tribunal last week.
Giving the Tribunal's decision, the president, Sir Hubert Hull, said the ke.), document produced in the case was one showing what was left untransported at the end of each day at the Massey-Ferguson and Standard-Triumph plants.
" Once one appreciates how many vehicles are required to reduce that backlog to the sort of figure no one can complain of, three vehicles are ample to reduce it. certainly within a measurable time, to an amount which no firm can consider to be excessive." he said.
