The taxi drivers of Santiago del Teide received the contribution with which the municipality contributes to support this important activity for the local economy. The City Council of Santiago del Teide transferred 10,000 euros as a subsidy corresponding to the year 2021. The Professional Association of Self-Employed Autotourism Workers of the municipality has this amount for the maintenance of the management system of the entire fleet of vehicles.
Within the framework of the effects derived from the pandemic caused by covid-19, this contribution to taxi drivers is one of the measures with which the municipal government chaired by Emilio Navarro tries to contribute to the recovery of the sector. The tourist character is part of the profile of Santiago del Teide and is one of the conditions that favors the growth of the activity.
