Dear All - 

Could you please circulate this e-mail with attachment as a matter of urgency.

Please find map attached outlining the provision for Manchester Hackney Carriages around the Pride Event site over the weekend.

The locations that Hackney Carriages are permitted to rank are marked out in blue.

1.  Along Princess St, one Hackney Carriage vehicle will be permitted outside the New Union and then vehicles are to rank back along 
Princess St (including where we already have ranking provision) but must not rank in
the bus stops or cause traffic obstructions.

Compliance officers will be moving taxis ranking in the stops. 

Please note we will also tolerate ranking/waiting on Portland St as long as it doesn't causes issues/obstructions.

Cones will be placed along the kerbside of these temporary ranking areas and Taxi Marshalls will be at the
Princess St, Major St and Whitworth St points.

Licensing compliance officers will also be around these locations frequently throughout the whole weekend, including the Bank Holiday.
