Andorran Taxi Association Demands CityXerpa Deal Suspension Amid Expulsion Push

Members of the Andorran Taxi Association (ATA) continue to demand the suspension of a deal with CityXerpa, arguing it stems from a serious violation of the association's statutes after a contract was signed without member knowledge.

The conflict erupted when details of an agreement between taxi entities and CityXerpa emerged, undisclosed during the ATA's extraordinary general assembly in December. Critics have informed the Transport Department of their objections and called for a new assembly to review the contract's contents and submit it to a membership vote. Some are pushing for a no-confidence motion against the board under Víctor Ambor, raising fears that the deal may breach taxi sector regulations.

In a related escalation, the ATA board has now convened another extraordinary assembly specifically to vote on expelling four members accused of breaching statutes by operating both traditional taxis and Uber services. The board views this dual activity as incompatible, framing it as a "double game" that undermines the push for a unified dispatch system and exclusive tech partnerships.

The upcoming assembly will feature secret ballot votes on each expulsion, with the board urging maximum attendance to ensure a strong quorum and clear outcome. A disciplinary dossier has been prepared, recommending expulsion as the sanction.

This internal rift highlights deepening divisions within the sector, though the four targeted drivers maintain they are not forfeiting any rights by combining services. No statements have surfaced from the Transport Department or Ambor's board on the CityXerpa dispute, and the expulsions remain pending the assembly's decision.
