Taxi Drivers,Ban,Older Vehicles

Taxi drivers in a national park have warned they could be 'wiped out' after a council proposed to ban cabbies whose vehicles are more than five years old as part of its strategy to tackle climate change.

Taxi drivers in Hampshire's New Forest are concerned about a proposed ban on cabs older than five years as part of the council's climate change strategy. The ban, set to take effect in January 2026, could lead to significant financial burdens for operators. They argue that replacing older vehicles is not environmentally friendly and fear that the ban could eliminate 70% of taxis in the area.

Additionally, they highlight the negative impact on disabled and elderly commuters due to the high cost of electric wheelchair-friendly vehicles
