LTI Vehicles Resigns from the London Taxi Board

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM – August 4, 2009: After careful consideration, LTI Vehicles have decided to resign from the London Taxi Board.

LTI wish to work on initiatives that benefit the London taxi trade, and recent events mean that this can no longer be achieved through the London Taxi Board.

LTI have held wider concerns regarding the relevance of the LTB as an umbrella pressure group for some time and the recent trade dispute at Heathrow has focused our attention on our membership of the Board.

Following the announcement of changes to our distribution network LTI wants to focus on improving the way we interact with the trade, and we would like to work closer with a broader range of trade bodies than can be achieved through the LTB.
