Successive protests in the country! Taxi drivers block the square, demand cost reduction and license restrictions

As they had warned, taxi drivers went out in protest today in "Mother Teresa" Square in Tirana.

The Taxi Transport Union has stated that the reason for the protest is the lack of response from institutions to their repeated requests regarding the sector's problems.

The Secretary General of the Albanian Transport Workers' Union, Gëzim Karanxha, listed some of the reasons that have led taxi drivers to protest. He mentioned the high number of licenses, the quality of fuel, high taxes and the lack of taxi stands.

Among the main demands of taxi drivers are:

Respecting taximeter tariffs and defining criteria for persons who provide this service.

The license plates, the Municipality stamp and the license must be owned by the person carrying out the activity.

Removal from service of unlicensed vehicles.

Reducing and stabilizing the price of fuel, as well as guaranteeing its quality.

Priority treatment of taxi service by road traffic authorities.

Determining the number of licenses based on the number of residents.

Fuel subsidy, since taxi transportation is considered by them as a public service.
