As the holder of a goods or passenger vehicle operator’s licence there are a number of occasions when you are required to notify matters to the Traffic Commissioner in writing.

From later this year, and for the first time, the Traffic Area Office for Wales will be based within Wales. Up to now the Welsh Traffic Area has been administered from Birmingham where the Traffic Commissioner for Wales has also been the Traffic Commissioner for the West Midlands.

The office of the Traffic Commissioner for the North East of England is located at Hillcrest House in the Harehills Area of Leeds. The address at Harehills House will be familiar with operators all over the country because this is also the location of the Central Licensing office which deals with operator licence applications throughout the whole of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Most public inquiries in the West Midlands Traffic Area are held in a court room at the Traffic Commissioner’s office in George Road in Edgbaston, Birmingham. Occasionally hearings might be held in other locations, but that is the exception.
