Adeje Welcomes 15 New Licenses for Accessible Taxis

The municipality of Adeje has recently granted fifteen new autotaxi licenses. Mayor José Miguel Rodríguez Fraga and the Councilor for Security, Promotion of Economic Activity, and Employment, Mercedes Vargas Delgado, convened a meeting with the recipients of these 15 autotaxi licenses, culminating a process initiated with the recent municipal plenary session decision. The beneficiaries will operate public service vehicles completely adapted for individuals with reduced mobility, in line with the growing trend supported by the Adeje City Council to increase such services throughout the year.

According to the municipal government, the latest provision of 15 autotaxi licenses for public passenger transport service in vehicles adapted for individuals with reduced mobility marks the conclusion of a process initiated by the Adeje City Council in June 2023. This initiative underscores “the determined commitment of the Adeje City Council towards modernization, adaptation, and quality in providing public service, aspiring towards an increasingly ecological and compliant fleet of adapted vehicles,” stated the councilor.

The mayor expressed satisfaction on behalf of the local administration and all involved in this process, as it “successfully granted opportunities to 15 individuals and families, offering new employment and professional paths.” Additionally, the councilor of Adeje remarked that these concessions, expected to continue in the coming months, not only benefit the recipients but also “improve the lives of those with mobility needs, prioritizing the societal demands of this crucial public service,” he highlighted.

The Adeje City Council has allocated a subsidy of 60,000 euros in this year’s budget for the adaptation of the initial 15 autotaxi licenses to vehicles designed for individuals with reduced mobility. Mercedes Vargas remarked, “Following the socioeconomic study on the extension of autotaxi licenses in Adeje, it is evident that service provision is aligned with the principle of economic sufficiency”.

Presently, Adeje has 193 taxi licenses. An assessment identifying deficiencies in the service underscores the need for an additional 31 units, to be progressively incorporated. Until now, only eight accessible taxis were available in the segment. The councilor explained, “This is why all new licenses must contribute to universal accessibility through accessible vehicles.”
