Taxis For All Campaign

Activists wanted to be able to hail a taxi like other New Yorkers, but there were far too few accessible taxis. They formed a coalition called the “Taxis for All Campaign,” and asked the city council to pass a law to make more taxis accessible. In 2011, the city chose a new model of yellow taxi from a design competition, but it was not the most accessible. Protestors held a roll-in at the taxi design expo.
