Plying for hire requires a licence from the local authority in the
area to be plied in. This is going to be a huge problem with the new
Science Park station whose forecourt will be in South Cambs that has
next to no licensed hackneys. My plan, for a joint licensing authority
covering both councils was making no progress when other events
intervened.

Is there any possibility of a byelaw declaring the station to be in
'joint' territory? It might help swing that if, as I suspect, it's
landlocked by the City (via Milton Rd).

No. I tried to get the new square that will be part of the station
development made public highway but got no support. The developers and
Notwork Rail wouldn't budge.

It shouldn't matter who owns it, just a waiver on the District
Boundary condition for that site.

If a developer won't dedicate land as public highway and the highway
authority won't use compulsory powers to override them, what can be done?
I'm surprised you don't t realise that, Roland.
