Taxi cap removal plans approved for Bournemouth and Poole

CONTROVERSIAL plans to lift a cap on the number of cab licences issued in Bournemouth and Poole have passed the final hurdle. BCP Council approved new taxi policies on Tuesday, despite concerns about the effect they will have on the viability of the profession. An attempt had been made by some opposition councillors to delay the decision with calls for more information to be provided, but this was defeated. The policies, which were unanimously approved by the council s licensing committee earlier this month, set out the requirements for taxi drivers operating across Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole. They include a new white colour scheme and a vehicle age limit.

What happened in Bournemouth last summer during Covid?

But how will BCP Council prevent that from happening this year?  Soaring temperatures led to thousands of people suddenly arriving in the county overwhelming security services, responders and resources.  The chaos happened amid an easing of lockdown restrictions back in June.  As temperatures reached 30C, visitors from across Britain drove down to Dorset creating major delays and gridlock.  Almost 1,000 parking fines were issued and more than 50 tonnes of rubbish were collected from the beaches in a single day on June 25.  The hot weather saw car parks in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole full by 10am, roads congested and thousands of people arriving by train throughout the day and evening, leading to extremely crowded beaches, stretched services and widespread anti-social behaviour.
