Capital Taxi Agreement

When will Capital Taxi Drivers reach an agreement with Coventry Connections over dispatch fees?
Before the end of August: 45%
In September: 35%
Not before the end of September: 20%
(An agreement must be accepted by drivers in order to count)

Since August 1st, Capital taxi drivers have been withholding fees to their dispatch service, Coventry Connections, over a dispute over fees (see story here).  This dispute is separate from the airport taxi strike.  Blueline drivers, who had also been withholding fees, recently reached an agreement (see story here).

I think that Capital taxi drivers will likely reach an agreement before the end of August, and almost certainly reach an agreement before the end of September.  The recent agreement with Blueline taxi drivers is an encouraging sign.
