Taxi drivers operating East Bank short-drop cars say that their livelihoods have been severely affected by the drastic reduction in the amount of cars now allowed to park in their allotted area.
A representative of the few drivers left, who asked to remain anonymous during an interview with Stabroek News, stated that a proposal had been made to allow them to operate from Brickdam to Hadfield streets on the western side of Cornhill Street.
A fee of $1,500 per week was agreed on to be paid to the Mayor and City Council.
