TAXIS are being banned from the centre of Brighouse.
Calderdale Council is backing a proposal to prevent taxi drivers from parking in the town centre.
They want parking spaces to be freed up for shoppers and visitors.
Members of Calderdale Council's Cabinet have agreed to fund and promote a traffic regulation order which will prevent any private hire or hackney carriage cabs from parking in free spaces across Brighouse.
Brighouse ward councillors will now meet with members of the council's economy and environmental scrutiny panel to discuss which streets and what times will be brought in for the ban.
