'No need for more black taxis'HULL: A new report says there should be no change in the number of black cab licences in the city.
The recommendation follows a city council-commissioned survey carried out by consultants into the demand for hackney carriage licences.
The current limit of 170 licences was set three years ago. The survey found there was no evidence of any further demand for black cab licences.
In the survey drivers said trade had dipped in recent years with most blaming the recession.
