By area

Check one company with the operator licence check. From public licence records, limited companies only. Vehicle numbers show what is on a licence, which can differ from the vehicles on the road, and authorised numbers are a ceiling. A town’s list counts a licence where any of its operating centres is, so a large fleet can appear in several towns.
