Hi, I’m wondering if someone can forward me the relevant guidance from the TC stating how often an ETM should do site visits, as I can’t seem to find it.
Thank you!

As often as you maintain effective control

this is exactly what I thought too - but I am in the process of setting up a new O licence and they have stated that how often I visit site is not correct as it “does not line up with relevant guidance from the traffic commissioner”
I have never been able to find said guidance and always believed it to be as often as needed to maintain effective control.

stat doc 3 only suggest "minimum" hours per week required based on amount of vehicles.

thank you. I have this document and the hours I have provided are well within what is required.
I think I will be making a phone call to them to get some more info

You spend sufficient time on Site to maintain continuous and effective control / management of the Licence Undertakings!

given it's broken down by week, I would anticipate the TC to expect you to be onsite weekly

Watching with interest but as said above, more details required. Number of vehicles, distance from OC etc?

I look after 2 licences, 14 trucks on one but its construction/plant hire so takes a lot to keep them in line, I'm there 4 or 5 days a week, the other licence is one truck owner/driver, I visit him every other weekend, go as often as you need and charge by the hour, that encourages them to keep things right

How often were you planning a visit? What gets done remotely.
