Fleet News Archive  Aug/Sep 2005 - Brisbane is Booming With the continual population growth in Brisbane over the last few years an updated Street Directory is essential for all drivers. Even close to the city, Newstead is almost unrecognisable from two years ago and this has resulted in a huge increase in business for the taxi industry in the New Farm/Breakfast Creek area. Initial problems were apparent at many of the units because passengers were not stipulating exact pick up however this has been addressed and many drivers now enjoy the fruits of working this area. It is a quick run back to the area from the city using the Ivory St tunnel and Bowen Terrace and three jobs per hour is achievable. Please use your stats screen to establish where the work is and consider this before running empty to a slow moving rank.
