| Post subject: | Edinburgh taxi drivers upset to find tractors, blocking rank |
taxi point article Frustrated taxi drivers in Edinburgh were dismayed to find more vital taxi rank space taken away from them as photos show lorries, tractors and other heavy plant vehicles blocking the ranks. Taxi drivers across the UK have been hit hard financially during the coronavirus pandemic. Cabbies in Edinburgh looking to return to work and kick start their industry have however had to do so with less vital rank space to find fares in the city centre. In the latest picture it showed the normally busy Market Street rank, used to pick-up those travelling to Waverley train station, blocked with vehicles. A spokesperson from Unite Edinburgh Cab Branch told Edinburgh City Council and councillors: “This might mean very little to you but for taxi drivers, this is completely unacceptable. “Your lack of consultation with the taxi trade does you no favours. Please fix this mess.” Unite also shared another image showing another central city centre rank blocked by a heavy goods vehicle. Unite said: “Would any of you care to comment on this. Totally unacceptable. “Taxi drivers already having a brutal time just now and allowing ranks to disappear or vehicles park in them makes this even harder.” didn't bother posting the rest I think we've got the gist |
