People in Watford are being asked for their views on whether the number of taxis in the town should be capped.

Following an independent report, Watford Borough Council’s licensing committee will be considering whether to limit the number of taxi licences it issues next month.

The number of licences is currently unlimited and will only be capped if councillors believe there is no unmet demand for taxis in the area.

The independent report and the draft action plan can be viewed at the Watford Town Hall Customer Service Centre, or on the council’s website at: http://tinyurl.com/taxi-survey-documents.

Comments can be made by March 5 either at http://tinyurl.com/2012-taxi-survey or by writing to: Licensing, Watford Borough Council, Town Hall, Watford, Herts, WD17 3EX or emailing licensing@watford.gov.uk.
