Ousted Stabroek vendors cry foul at car park

Private hire cars lining the strip outside Stabroek Market that vendors were told would be cleared for pedestrians

Vendors, who were on Sunday last removed by the Mayor and City Council (M&CC) from plying their trade outside the Stabroek Market, are upset as a taxi park has been set up in the area they were told needed to be cleared for pedestrian use.

“How can anyone be so cruel to we? Remove people, mostly women with children and families from selling to put a car park? A taxi park? They break down our stands now we have nowhere to go. Nowhere!”
