Taxi Rank Information Board
In plain English
Information board showing the taxi rank capacity and operating rules.
What it means
Taxi rank information boards are provided at larger taxi ranks to show the number of taxis the rank can accommodate (e.g. 'Stand for 3 taxis') and any specific operating rules. They do not create an additional restriction but help manage the rank. Only licensed Hackney carriages may use the rank during its operating hours.
