Calls are being made for more Blackpool taxi drivers to be able to display adverts on their vehicles as a way of boosting income.
Conservative group leader Coun Tony Williams will put the request to the vote at the next full meeting of the council on Wednesday September 21. While hackney cabs are already allowed to display adverts, Coun Williams says the opportunity should be extended to private hire vehicles to help them offset rising costs.
He said: “It’s common practice all over the world but not in Blackpool. It creates extra revenue for operators in these difficult times.” Coun Williams has submitted a notice of motion to the council.
