Massive taxi shortages in Dublin this weekend

Dublin is going to be very busy this weekend. There’s Taylor Swift playing three sold out nights in the Aviva Stadium, Longitude in Marlay Park, Shania Twain is at Malahide Castle on Friday and the Saw Doctors are at Fairview Park on Saturday. You also have the GAA Senior football Championship and the Dublin Pride Parade. All of which will bring around 600,000 people into the capital over the weekend. Adrian Cummins is the CEO of the Restaurants Association of Ireland and a founding member of the Taxis for Ireland Coalition, and they are warning that they’re won’t be nearly enough taxis to meet demand. Will public transport be able to hold up? He joins Andrea, along with Barry Kenny, Corporate Comms Manager with Irish Rail, Sunil Sharpe, spokesperson for Give Us The Night and listeners to discuss.
