Any idea how many working drivers are licenced to work Dublin now? Number of cars working seems a lot higher recently
Thanks Watty. Looks like it's nearly back to 2008 levels so?
https://www.nationaltransport.ie/taxi/publications-and-regulations/statistics-and-legislation/vehicle-licences-county-and-category-31st-january-2019/11,267 PSV vehicles in Dublin as of 31 Jan 2020. Includes 25 hacks and 500+ limos.
*a vehicle is licensed to operate anywhere in the country: it is only the licensed driver that has a geographical area restriction. The county here is based on the licence holder’s address.
I don't recall seeing it on the page before and it's a question that was frequently asked on fora over the years. Most of the Loud/Mead men are licensed for Dublin as well so I guess you could add them all in... there's even Dublin licensed drivers commuting from Laois, Longford and probably further afield. Then there's all the country drivers with no Dublin licences that commute to work for Free Now.
