North Carolina Administrative Code › Title 04 - COMMERCE › Chapter 11 - UTILITIES COMMISSION › Chapter 2 › Article 9 - MISCELLANEOUS › Section 11 R02-59 - TIME TABLES

Current through Register Vol. 39, No. 2, July 15, 2024
(a) Information in
				  Table. - Every common carrier of passengers shall file with the Commission with
				  a copy to the Public Staff a time table showing the time of arrival and
				  departure of its coaches at each regular station or stop, and such time table
				  shall further show the number of trips to be made daily over each route or
				  routes. Time tables shall be available in each waiting room at bus stations.
				  Time tables shall bear an issuing date and an effective date.
(b) Time Table Changes. - Any change in or
				  addition to a time table shall be made by reissuing the time table. Each new
				  time table shall cancel the previous time table. Every time table shall bear a
				  number which shall be placed in the upper left-hand corner of the title page
				  and shall be printed in bold type. Time tables shall be numbered consecutively.
				  Five (5) copies of all changes in time schedules shall be filed with the
				  Commission not less than twenty (20) days prior to the effective date of
				  change, together with a certificate that copies thereof have been furnished by
				  first class mail to all connecting carriers and that said changes have been
				  posted in bus stations and at bus stops: Provided, however, that the Commission
				  may order such changes to be made upon shorter notice.
(c) Protest. - Where changes in time
				  schedules, other than changes relating to scheduling of interstate or
				  intrastate transportation provided by a motor common carrier of passengers
				  subject to the jurisdiction of the Interstate Commerce Commission under
				  subchapter II of chapter 105 of Title 49 of the United States Code on an
				  authorized interstate route, are properly posted in accordance with subsection
				  (b) above and no protest is received by the Commission during the first fifteen
				  (15) days after notice is properly posted, the carrier, unless otherwise
				  directed by the Commission, will be allowed to make the change effective on
				  date shown on the schedule, subject to complaint and further order of the
				  Commission. No protest by a connecting or competing carrier to a change of
				  schedule will be considered unless it is filed with the Commission in writing,
				  gives the reasons for such protest and certifies that a copy thereof has been
				  mailed by certified or registered mail to the carrier proposing the
				  change.
(d) Adherence to Schedules.
				  - Time schedules as filed with and approved by the Commission and posted for
				  the information of the public shall be strictly complied with. Habitual or
				  intentional delay to obtain passengers of a competitor will be considered just
				  cause for removing the schedule of the offending carrier.
(e) Effective Date. - This amended rule shall
				  be effective on and after July 1, 1986.
