Three men who own water taxis and commercial boats have filed a judicial protest against the Transport Authority over a port notice.
Joseph Gheiti, Johann Micallef and Ivan Zammit have been banned from Sliema Ferries, Marsamxett, Lascaris Wharf and the Inner Dockyard Creek.
They said it was “a clear attempt to stop water taxis offering services” in the areas and called on the watchdog to revoke the notice.
