‘We are currently looking into a case involving the local taxi companies; the offense consists in violating the existing advertising laws. In this case, the companies have been declared guilty. We are also considering the question of whether Yekaterinburg-based Koltsovo Airport legally carried out a tender and selected Taxi-Gorod as ‘the airport’s exclusive hauler’,’ Head of Sverdlovsk Region division of the Russian Federation Federal Antimonopoly Service Tatiana Kolotova said at a press conference in Yekaterinburg.


‘Following the tender, Taxi-Gorod was given a special parking lot on the airport’s premises, which did give this hauler some exclusive rights. We are investigating the matter, but the case hasn’t been instituted yet,’ she added.
