• A conflict over bus fares between the new Teesside County Borough and United Automobile Services Ltd., which threatened to become open "warfare", has been averted. The Teesside Council now controls the transport undertakings of the former Stockton and holiddlesbrough Corporations, and Teesside Rail-less Traction Board. In the past, the Teesside Traction Board kept its fares on a level with those of the United, while the latter fell into line with the fares of the Stockton and Middlesbrough transport undertakings.
The Northern Licensing Authority, in allowing both concerns to raise their fares, urged them to get together on a common fare system.
The Teesside authority has now decided to adopt United fares on five workmen's services on the former Traction Board route, and United is to adjust its fares in the Middlesbrough and Stockton areas. Without the settlement, United was able to undercut all Corporation fares in the two towns, adding to the problem of the Teesside Corporation transport system which is already losing £5,000 a week.
