At 1pm the taxi drivers broke off the strike , but the state of unrest continues . The meeting at the end with the mayor, Paolo Truzzu, did not take place . "He was busy with another meeting, but his spokesperson told us that he will see us by the end of the year ."

Today the demonstration started from the Thotel in via dei Giudicati, the taxi drivers crossed the whole city up to Palazzo Bacaredda , at the end of the morning there were almost fifty cars parked in via Roma. The service is now regularly resumed for everyone.

There are various reasons put on the table by taxi drivers . First of all, the absence of dialogue between the parties for fundamental issues that concern not only the category, but the Cagliaritans themselves who use taxis every day. The city road system, revolutionized by construction sites, which lengthens travel times is instead the flaw in their daily work. And then there is the taxi regulation being discussed in the commission.

But taxi drivers also crossed their arms as a sign of protest towards the rates which have been waiting to be updated since 2017 and "at the gates of 2024 with all the increases we have had, they are more sustainable".
