POLICE have been carrying out taxi checks in #Warrington to help ensure passenger safety and support legitimate taxi drivers.
Last night, Saturday, Warrington South Neighbourhood police, supported by taxi licencing officers, conducted a joint operation to focus on licensed passenger vehicles, primarily in the Town Centre and Stockton Heath areas.
Several taxis were checked, and working alongside Wolverhampton licensing officers, several breaches of licence conditions were reported.
Through Operation Confederation, local officers are working with partner organisations to provide reassurance to those using taxis in Warrington that they are safe to use and road worthy, with enforcement action being taken where appropriate.
Cheshire Police will continue to support the legitimate taxi drivers of Warrington throughout, ensuring those enjoying a night out in Warrington can return home safely.
