Traffic commissioners work to promote safe, fair, efficient and reliable passenger and goods transport.

At the start of this month, they welcomed a new team member, Ms Claire Gilmore, to join that mission.

Ms Gilmore is a solicitor who has specialised in litigation for most of her career. She is also a qualified engineer.

Before taking up her new role as the Traffic Commissioner for Scotland, Ms Gilmore was the Senior Investigating Officer in the Office of the Ethical Standards Commissioner in Scotland.
