Bus Operator Penalized for Breaching Open Data Rules

The Traffic Commissioner for the West Midlands, Miles Dorrington, imposed a financial penalty under section 155 of the Transport Act 2000 of £1500, based on a £100 penalty for each of the vehicles authorised on the operator's licence.

This case is one of the first referred to a traffic commissioner that includes a failure to comply with regulations that have required data to be provided since 2021. Operators of local services should ensure they meet all obligations in running local services and seek the help from the BODS Helpdesk who can be contacted at:
