Liverpool City Council enforcement teams have issued 72 penalty tickets over two nights as part of a clampdown on vehicles obstructing designated taxi ranks in the city centre.
On Saturday 21 June, Licensing Enforcement Officers joined forces with Parking Services to patrol key locations, resulting in 38 tickets being handed out to vehicles parked illegally on taxi ranks.
The action followed a similar operation on the evening before, which saw another 34 penalty tickets issued for the same offence.
A council spokesperson said taxi ranks need to remain clear to allow licensed taxis to operate and serve the public safely and efficiently.
The enforcement effort is part of ongoing activity to maintain proper use of taxi infrastructure across the city, aimed at supporting drivers and improving access for passengers.
A Liverpool City Council Licensing spokesperson said on Saturday 21 June: “Liverpool Licensing Enforcement Officers have been working alongside colleagues from Parking Services again this evening targeting vehicles parked on Taxi Ranks in the City Centre.
“A total of 38 tickets were issued. Taxi Ranks must be kept clear for Taxis to operate from!”
