Taxi licence costs set to fall


THE cost of being a taxi driver in the Braintree district is set to fall.

A Hackney Carriage or private hire licence is currently priced at £92 for one year, but new legislation means the council now has to offer a three year entitlement.

From October 1 this will cost £263, meaning an overall saving of £13.

Drivers will still be able to apply for a one-year licence on a pro-rata basis if they have special circumstances.

Are they going to challenge? Or just take it up the starfish?

The latter, but the wording of the new act doesn't really help.
