the essentials While farmers block access to highways around Toulouse, this Wednesday, taxis are also demonstrating in Toulouse once morest a project to reform the transport of patients to healthcare establishments. From 7 a.m., they leave in a convoy around the Pink City.
Postpone your travels this Wednesday morning. This is the watchword from the Haute-Garonne prefecture for this Wednesday, January 24 in Toulouse. Around the Toulouse metropolitan area, for several days farmers have installed blockages almost everywhere on the motorways, whether on the A64 or the RN124 in the Gers or since Tuesday on the A61.
Disturbances announced on the ring road. Midi Libre – Antoine Llop – Llop
But they are not the only ones who want to be heard. Taxis will also converge this Wednesday from throughout the region towards Toulouse. They will meet at Toulouse-Blagnac airport at 6:30 a.m. Traffic difficulties are therefore expected from that time in the area, as more than 300 vehicles are expected. Departure is planned around 7 a.m., via the inner ring road and the outer ring road.

Tarn taxis will show their anger tomorrow morning
A first snail operation will be deployed in the morning, then the taxis will go to the city center, to the Jean-Jaurès aisles, the boulevards and the Primary Health Insurance Fund (boulevard Léopold Escande). They will be received at 11 a.m. At the beginning of the followingnoon, they plan new slow-moving operations on the ring road, until around 6 p.m. During their last mobilization, on December 11, they blocked the Pink City.
They are mobilizing once morest a project to reform the transport of patients to healthcare establishments. This activity called medical transport constitutes a major source of income for many taxi artisans. The Ministry of Health, in its 2024 Social Security financing bill, wishes to make one hundred million euros in savings per year, on a transport budget of 5.5 billion. To do this, he wants to set up a reservation system through platforms, to rationalize taxi travel, and strongly encourage them to transport several patients at the same time in their vehicle, under penalty of being less reimbursed. But for taxis, this obligation will not work.
