Premier John Brumby said the Taxi Rank Safety Program initiative would allow the Victorian Government to work closely with councils to provide better facilities for taxi passengers and drivers.“Under this four-year program, councils can apply for funding to improve nominated taxi ranks to deliver the greatest safety for passengers,” Mr Brumby said. We are taking action to ensure that passengers can catch a taxi conveniently and do so from a safe environment.”
