Taxi drivers hold protests in Waterford and Limerick

Taxi drivers in Waterford and Limerick are staging protests in the two cities today over separate issues.

Waterford taxi drivers are protesting the lack of spaces on the taxi rank in the city centre and are staging a two-hour stoppage at lunchtime.

In Limerick, meanwhile, hundreds of drivers are showing their frustration over the number of licences being issued to part-time drivers by holding a go-slow protest through the city.
