LTI Vehicles Resigns from the London Taxi Board – 29 July 2009


After careful consideration, LTI Vehicles have decided to resign from the London Taxi Board.

LTI wish to work on initiatives that benefit the London taxi trade, and recent events mean that this can no longer be achieved through the London Taxi Board.

LTI have held wider concerns regarding the relevance of the LTB as an umbrella pressure group for some time and the recent trade dispute at Heathrow has focused our attention on our membership of the Board.

Following the announcement of changes to our distribution network LTI wants to focus on improving the way we interact with the trade, and we would like to work closer with a broader range of trade bodies than can be achieved through the LTB.

To find out more about LTI Vehicles visit www.lti.co.uk.

ENDS

For further information call Richard Daniels on 07738 253 233 or email rdaniels@lti.co.uk.

Making sure that only their cabs & purpose built taxis with a turning circle of 25ft were licensed by the PCO.

Now that they have left the LTB will Mercedes replace them on the Board?

I wonder how many Mercs have been sold in London so far & if there are any serious problems with those vehicles that have come to light since their launch.

The LTB means, and has meant very little for years.

Why they still exsist is a mystery.

How much impact do they have?

The Railway Union probably has more, and that ain't a lot, toilets and all. :D
