can any York driver who knows whats going on confirm that there was a Council meeting with the Taxi Association
re the Council who have put at least 10 new plates on now, and are concerned that these plates haven't gone to individuals as per plan, but bought by plate Barons after issue
one of the new issue WAV to the Courrier business as only been seen once out on the streets, the owner is to busy to taxi
another issued to a retired chap who is to old and cant pass a medical was issued and he sold it at 200 odd quid a week rental till its paid for over a few years, thats his pension fund, didnt even have to buy a vehicle
it is thought the next 6 plates are being suspended along with the 2 every 6 months are to be stopped
with drivers now struggling with trying to find rank space that work or punters use, the Council have decided to close 1 Piccadily rank and the one on Blossom st
Duncombe place taxi rank, they were alarmed that from cctv pictures that taxis after 2200hrs was still using the rank, to which closed at that time, certain taxis was spotted at least 15 times after rank closure time
only recently the licencing team was out in the early hours moving taxis from the rank in Rougier st cos there was more taxis on the rank than allotted
so where are we suppose to go, cant keep riding round
