The city of Sefrou is witnessing an escalating crisis in the small taxi sector, as citizens face daily difficulties in mobility due to a severe shortage of this vital means of transport, especially during peak hours in the morning and afternoon. This situation causes significant delays and disruptions in the movement of workers, students, and pupils, affecting the regularity of their daily lives.
The crisis becomes even more severe after midnight, where small taxi activity almost completely disappears, placing citizens in a difficult and dangerous position, especially in emergencies. In the absence of this service, residents find themselves unable to reach emergency medical services, night pharmacies, or the bus station in the early morning hours for travel. As a result, many are forced to walk long distances at night, exposing their safety to risk and impacting their dignity and fundamental right to continuous and safe transportation service.
In light of this situation, many citizens have raised urgent demands to local authorities, calling for swift intervention and coordination with representatives of the small taxi sector to organize night shifts. These demands include:
- Preparing and distributing a daily or weekly list specifying the names and numbers of taxis on duty after midnight, placing it at taxi stations, hospitals, pharmacies, and on official social media pages.
- Providing direct phone numbers to enable citizens to contact on-duty drivers.
- Establishing an effective rotation system to ensure citywide service coverage during nighttime hours.
- Enhancing monitoring to ensure driver compliance with this system.
This crisis highlights the urgent need for comprehensive solutions to ensure the continuity of small taxi services in Sefrou, guaranteeing safety and comfort for citizens while meeting their daily and emergency transportation needs around the clock.
