Once this space is filled taxis should not cause an obstruction by waiting on the highway to access the rank. TfL has appointed certain taxi ranks as ‘island ranks’ in some inner London boroughs that are close to the border of a suburban sector. These allow suburban drivers who are licensed for the suburban sector to use the rank, along with All London drivers. Suburban drivers using these ranks are not allowed to ply for hire on the street outside of the island rank as they will not be licensed to do so. All island ranks are listed in the ‘Notes’ section below, along with which suburban drivers are allowed to use the rank. 6 V3 Correct as of 12 September 2013 Transport for London (TfL) appointed taxi ranks Key: TLRN – Transport for London Route Network (the highway authority is Transport for London).
