Taxi marshals scheme in Jamland hailed a success



A new taxi patrol tackling booze-fuelled trouble on west Cumbria’s streets has been hailed a success.

A team of taxi marshals have been out in force in Workington and Whitehaven for the first time.

Police say the new scheme is paying off after a peaceful weekend with very little crime or disorder.

There were no incidents reported in Whitehaven between midnight and 4am and just two in Workington – a man who was banned from the town centre for the night and a woman requiring medical treatment after convulsing outside a nightclub.

The taxi marshals, or ‘bouncers’ as they’re also known, are qualified security staff who patrol the queues at cab ranks providing a high-visibility presence. They are on duty from midnight until 4am and are equipped with

Pubwatch radios to keep them in constant communication with police, door staff, licencees and each other.

Sgt Richard Farnworth, chairman of the West Cumbria Community Safety Partnership (CSP) tactical delivery group, said: “It was a peaceful night and the marshals did what they’re supposed to and managed to prevent crime and disorder.”

The scheme was brought in following regular reports of trouble caused by drunken revellers on Saturday nights outside bars and clubs.

It was developed by the CSP, along with Allerdale Council. The Workington scheme is being funded by Cumbria’s Police and Crime Commissioner’s office and the CSP is funding the Whitehaven initiative.

The bouncers, who are supplied by Carlisle firm Safe and Sound Security, will be on patrol in the Washington Street area in Workington and Duke Street in Whitehaven every Saturday night until New Year’s Eve, including Festive Friday and Boxing Day.

Philip Tibble, executive member of Allerdale council and CSP chairman, said: “We want people to enjoy the nightlife in Workington, but we also want them to feel safe.

“We want to prevent a minority from spoiling other people’s enjoyment.

“The taxi marshals will prevent disorder in and around the taxi ranks, ensuring people can get home safely at the end of the evening.”

And there is me thinking that is a police job! What is wrong with me...ok do not go there.

Right! So we do not do parking tickets - we get traffic wardens!

We do not do policing work - we get taxi marshals!

So what is the point of police if they keep on delegating the job? Oh I remember now.....stand around!

P.S. Watch Cardiff whereby they are trying to get the drivers (Hackney only) to foot the bill to pay for the "Taxi Marshals" ................this could be coming to your area!!!!

Nothing changes with you! Usual negativity, usual criticism, usual non solution, usual lack of knowledge!

I would like to say that I missed you........but I cannot - as I did not.

Just to bring your ignorance back up to speed.......not that it needs bringing up to speed - the Cardiff Hackneys are in the process of a judicial review, got to do it yourselves haven't you, as you cannot rely on poxy trade unions.

The unions show themselves up by their lack of professionalism!

They must be the only "Business" that have lost close on 10/12 million customers :shock: and still expect people to knock on their door to "please sir can I join your club!" If they were real pros they would be out there selling themselves to whatever workforce we still have.

Yes, he is a nice guy and getting rave reviews. The young man concerned has been going out with my neighbours daughter directly across the road from us - a very pretty girl from a good family. Picked him up in my cab when he was convalescing from his horrendous injury - no crutches :shock: just pins in his leg.

Still! all that is behind him, hopefully never to go through that again.

P.S. Talking about professionalism - GET YOUR QUOTES SORTED :wink:
