TRAINING

MARTIN ROBERTSON MEMORIAL
RESEARCH and TRAVEL BURSARY & PRIZE PAPER

The late Martin Robertson, ATCO Chairman from 2000 to 2002, played a key role in promoting training and development activities for staff engaged in the co-ordination of passenger transport by local authorities. He also widened the Association’s activities especially for the benefit of less senior members.
The annual Research and Travel Bursary and Prize Paper competitions were started in 2004 in his memory.
