Taxi drivers are holding a protest next Tuesday, January 20th.

They are angry at the decision by the National Transport Authority to introduce a new fare structure, which they say will mean losses of 32 cent per kilometre for journeys over 30 kilometres long, during the day.

They also say the reprogramming of meters will cost over €4m.

The full details of next Tuesday's protest have not yet been released, but it is supported by the Irish Taxi Drivers Federation and the National Private Hire and Taxi Association.
