Post subject:	Bromsgrove could get more taxi ranks near night spots
Bromsgrove could get more taxi ranks near night spots PLANS for Bromsgrove to have an extended taxi rank close to the town's two latest opening night spots will go before the district council's licensing committee on Monday (May 20). The proposals will see the number of spaces reserved for taxis along Worcester Road extended from the three currently there to nine or ten. The spaces will be conveniently placed for those revellers coming out of B61, above the Dog and Pheasant, which opens until the early hours of Saturday morning, and Love2Love nightclub, which is open until 4am on Saturday and Sunday mornings. The move comes just three months after a story we ran in The Standard about residents in Station Street being angered at being kept awake by waiting taxis in the early hours of Saturday and Sunday morning. They claimed the headlights of the vehicles and the sound of their engines running made it impossible to get a good night's sleep at the weekend. The plans were drawn up after letters to the council from Bromsgrove Taxi Association and West Mercia Police. The association requested an extra seven spaces at least and the police's correspondence came after a meeting with representatives of the force, the district council and Worcestershire Regulatory Services. The new spaces would be on the same side of the Worcester Road as the current ones, but the other side of Station Street, more or less opposite George House. If approved on Monday, council officers will be given the go ahead to carry out a 28-day public consultation. Read more: http://www.bromsgrovestandard.co.uk/201 ... 71283.html
