Taxi Rank with Shared Parking Bay
In plain English
This bay operates as a taxi rank at certain times and as a general parking bay at others.
What it means
Some bays are used as taxi ranks during certain hours and revert to general parking bays at other times. The sign shows all time periods — check each panel carefully for when the rank operates, when general parking applies, and any time limits or no-return rules that apply. Only licensed Hackney carriages may use the rank during its operating hours.
