Taung-Greater Taung United Taxi Association held a meeting today at Batlhaping Ba-ga Phuduhucwana to discuss way forward of the temporary taxi rank.

The matter came to light after taxi drivers went on beserk on friday.

They insinuated their way beside busy roads of Taung as they claim the makeshif rank allocated to them is too small.

Eminent members of Taung Taxi Association contemplate the matter and agreed upon that all local taxis will continue operating in the streets as others are parked next to Vaaltar FM studios and others next to KFC.

“We had a meeting today to discuss a way forward with our taxi drivers. Even though fewer taxi drivers attended the meeting, we agreed that only long distance taxis will be based at the new taxi rank in Extension 6” Tshidiso Letlhaku said.

“All our taxis cannot be accomodated at the makeshift taxi rank so we would like to apologise to our commuters for any inconvenience caused” Taxi Association spokesperson said.

  1. This is so crazy, how can they place the long distance taxis at extension 6, are they even thinking of ppl who have to walk with laggage? They must come up with other solution. Will the taxis be there permanently or is this temporary?
