Approved Tachograph Centres (ATCs) install, calibrate and inspect tachographs, which record information about driving time, speed and distance.

This consultation seeks views on:

  • stopping the requirement for ATCs to offer analogue tachograph calibration
  • allowing smaller sites to be used
  • making changes to streamline the ATC manual

The changes are intended to remove unnecessary burden on centres, so they can improve the service they offer to their customers.
