months of negotiations between Lancashire Cou­ nty Council, Ribble Valley Borough Council and the local taxi drivers' associa­ tion, the new rank was put in place last weekend in the parking bays directly in front of J. Cowgill and Son's Newsagents and the


Oxfam shop. However, cab drivers say


the rank sign, fitted by Lan­ cashire County Council, on the wall between the two shops, is so insignificant no one has recognised it is there. The rank is to be for the exclusive use of taxis between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. During the day, it is public parking for


the usual 30 minutes. "No one can see the sign,


it's not visible to members of the the public unless they really look for it. We are grateful for having these spaces given to us, but we cannot get anywhere near them, because there are cars parked in them regardless. As it stands, it's a waste of time," said a spokesman for

By law, when the spaces oh King Lane are taken we are sup­ posed to move on to the next rank at Booth's super­ market. We might as well have a rank at Tosside for


all the use it gets. "The problem lies in the


complaints from residents on King Lane about the noise levels from taxis, but they have moved into a commerciaharea of town and there are tremendous noise levels coming from nearby nightspots regard­
