Maintenance problems have resulted in the revocation of the licence held by High Peak Borough Council by the North-Western Traffic Commissioner Beverley Bell.
The council, which had offered to surrender its licence authorising the operation of 38 vehicles and three trailers, with 17 vehicles in possession, failed to attend an Ashbourne public inquiry.
Delaying the revocation for a month, the TC said the council had written to say that its transport functions were being contracted
out in a month's time to Veolia Environmental Services. She criticised the council for not having the courtesy to appear before her.
