The United Taxi Association operates from the V.C. Bird International Airport and notes the influx of drivers who pick-up and discharge passengers driving cars with “A” and “C” plates.
The visitors to Cabinet sought the intervention of the Cabinet to eliminate this practice, which hurts the airport taxi drivers’ income and dilutes the security which a registered taxi-driver provides.
The Cabinet gave a promise to work with the authorities at the Airport to provide stricter controls.
Many solo travelers, the Cabinet was informed, are female; ensuring their greater security on their way to and from the V.C. Bird International Airport is critical to the success of tourism, the United Taxi Association informed.
