What should you do?
Do not stop or park in the taxi rank, even briefly, and watch for taxis pulling out or doors opening.
How to recognise it
A red-ringed circle with the word TAXI in black and small arrows pointing left and right above it.
Common confusion
It is easy to mistake it for a parking sign; the red ring signals a restriction, meaning the space is for taxis only.
