K&A Drive Solutions operator and transport manager disqualified after inquiry

What was published

Following a public inquiry on 31 July 2026, the Deputy Traffic Commissioner revoked K&A Drive Solutions' operator licence and disqualified the company and its director from holding or obtaining an operator licence until further order. Former transport manager David Holden was also disqualified until further order following a loss of good repute. The decision cites absent transport-manager cover, failure to demonstrate financial standing and compliance shortcomings.

Why it matters

When a transport manager leaves, operators must act promptly over their professional competence position and any application for a period of grace. Financial standing evidence and engagement with hearing directions are separate essential issues. The written decision records the sanctions as until further order rather than a fixed-duration ban.
