Several weeks back I noticed that most of the Taxi's had signs on them protesting a proposed water taxi, by Ultramar. I heard that Ultramar was attempting to start a service from the southern cruise ship piers to the San Miguel dock @ a buck a head. At the time I heard were that they were able to circumvent the Taxi mafias political stranglehold because they had gotten federal permits for the service. But I also heard from others that they still lacked a required local permit which the Taxi Mafia was using to try to stop it. Anyone know the actual status? My personnel hope is that if Ultramar can get away with this, maybe a Collectivo or Bus service along Melgar to the South end and East side could also be tried, perhaps successfully this time around.
