Celebrated the table of the taxi owners, orange training has been recorded that the timetable for 2017 has been renewed, with no technical report and no objective data to confirm that the service works well with those schedules

The Citizens spokesman has demanded an urgent meeting of the Transportation Bureau to correct the deficiencies detected in the municipal taxi service and make it more fair and sustainable.

In this regard, Gomez explained that, following the table held on Thursday by taxi owners with the Council of Fomento, Roque Ortiz, has proceeded to renew the regulation of the day of the taxi for next year, without technical report and without Objective data confirming that the service is working well or not with these schedules.

Different rates in the same public service

"This is an arbitrary decision aimed at satisfying only part of the taxi sector and, what is more serious, without taking into account the users," said the spokesman of C's, who has also recorded that Tax associations are applying the regulatory ordinance in a different way, which could mean charging different rates within our municipality and for the same route.

It seems that some taxi drivers do not charge the flag down until they pick up the users, while others apply a small bonus in that period.

"If this is the case, Gómez pointed out, in Murcia they would be charging different rates within the same public service, which would demonstrate that political diligence is lacking in the control, monitoring and regulation thereof."

Irregularities?

Another issue that Citizens have been aware of is that a number of commissions may appear to be paying for hotels to call one of the taxi associations for certain services.

"A matter that confirms, has highlighted the spokesman for the orange formation, Councilman Roque Ortiz, under no circumstances, could evade their responsibility, but if they say, is aware of this irregularity."

For all this, "from Citizens we expect the local government to convene, as soon as possible, the Transport Bureau and clarify what happens with the taxi sector in our municipality, so as to adopt the best solutions and put an end to all anomalies" .
