Taxi marshals to help revellers in Llandudno The marshals will work on taxis ranks on a Friday and Saturday night Monday, 26 April 2010 Llandudno is launching a taxi marshal project aimed at helping revellers to get home after a night out. The trained marshals will run taxi stands on Friday and Saturday nights there from this weekend. Llandudno is aiming to land "purple flag" status for its town centre, the the hospitality and entertainment equivalent of a blue flag for beaches. The taxi marshals scheme will work from 2100 BST until 0100 BST on weekend until after the World Cup in June. The project, announced on Monday, is supported by Conwy council, North Wales Police, Pubwatch, Llandudno Town Council, and Conwy Community Safety Partnership. Marshals are trained and hold licenses issued by Security Industry Authority, the organisation responsible for regulating the private security industry. Antisocial behaviour Each marshals will have a radio link to North Wales Police, Conwy's CCTV network control room, taxi drivers and venues around the town. In addition to helping to ensure passengers queues are safe and orderly, the marshals' are also expected to reduce antisocial behaviour and report unlicensed and uninsured vehicles. Conwy's Head of Regulatory Services, Phil Rafferty said: "The marshals' main function will be to provide re-assurance, in conjunction with the police, and provide a focal point to help the public to disperse from the town centre."
