Stopping-places Dispute
MHEN Harper Bros. (Heath Hayes), IN Ltd., of Heath Hayes, Cannock, applied for the removal of restrictions on stopping places on their CannockAldridge service before the West Midland Traffic Commissioners at Birmingham last week, Walsall Corporation objected.
Mr. D. Skelding, for Harper Bros., said that originally, their buses had followed a different and longer route, but when road works were carried out increasing the head room under the Girton Road bridge, the road became usable by double-decker buses, this saving the company considerable mileage in a year. Walsall Corporation were granted a licence to use the road, but when Harper Bros. made a similar application, the corporation took the view that because Harper Bros. did not subscribe to the cost of the works, they were not entitled to come that way. The licence was granted but with the stopping place restrictions, alleged Mr. Skelding.
The decision was reserved.
