Dozens of operators and owners, affiliated with the Top Six Taxi Organisation, marched to Mayor Dada Morero’s office on Thursday to deliver a memorandum of demands for full back payment.
JOHANNESBURG - Disgruntled taxi owners have issued an ultimatum to the City of Johannesburg, demanding a payment plan within seven days to address eight years of unpaid fees tied to the Rea Vaya bus system agreement.
Taxi owners argue that the city failed to honour a 12-year contract, which promised each owner R830,000 per vehicle to cease operations. The memorandum outlines several key demands: a full payment plan with a precise schedule, a timely resolution for the alleged missing payments, and a sustainable framework for potentially renewing the agreement.
