The Council currently limits the number of hackney carriage vehicle licences it issues to 143.

The person allocated a licence will be required to agree to the following: • the vehicle must meet the Council’s hackney carriage vehicle specification and be either a London Taxi, Mercedes Vito Taxi, Ford ProCab, Peugeot E7 Taxi or any other vehicle approved by the Council; • the vehicle must be presented within the time indicated on their application form from the date the licence is allocated; • the vehicle licence will not be sold or transferred for a period of three years from first issue. If you are interested in being considered for the grant of a hackney carriage vehicle licence please email licensing@trafford.gov.uk requesting an application form. You may also write requesting the same to the Licensing Section, Trafford Council, Talbot Road, Stretford, M32 OTH. Applications must be received by 5.00 pm on 25th July 2019.
