It appears that there could be a new TITSA service from the airport to La Caleta (Adeje).
According to
Canarias24Horas, taxi driver representatives from Arona, Granadilla, Adeje, San Miguel and Guia de Isora met yesterday in Arona Council offices to express their
concern about TITSA's intention of establishing such a new service in a route currently serviced by taxi only.
Both Council and Taxi sources say that they recognize the need for TITSA connections between the airport and tourist areas, but argue that it would be better to maintain and strengthen existing services to the motorway interchanges at Los Cristianos and Las Americas.
The taxi representatives also requested that TITSA buses don't enter any tourist areas, a proposal which they will raise at a Tenerife Cabildo meeting next week.
The taxistas position is supported by Arona's Transport Councillor, Antonio Miguel García Marichal, and his counterpart in Granadilla, Juan José González Donate. Señor García Marichal says that TITSA hasn't actually requested formal authorisation to put up bus stop signs inside tourist areas, nor has it said anything to the Council about setting up this new line. In any case, he says, although the service is currently provided by the taxi sector it will be provided in the near future by the "urban transport" which the Council is currently setting up itself.
Sounds to me like the taxi drivers are fighting a doomed rearguard action one way or another, and that whether there really will be a TITSA service to La Caleta, there will in any case be other alternatives to being forced to use the taxi monopoly .....
