Please note that this is the max price. Nothing stopping them charging less.

Good idea. Important to match that with no decent safe public transport though. We need joined up thinking here.

It’s cheaper to fly than it is to get a taxi. Pricing themselves out of business

Just get the bus if you can, 90% of them are arseholes.

9% is an average rise.Daytime fares have barely changed,early nighttime have gone up a bit,and a new (quite expensive)tariff kicks in between midnight and 4am at the weekends.
This will incentivise more drivers to work the after pub/club/restaurant hours.

My father is a taxi driver and was annoyed at these changes.
But the reality is, his insurance has rocketed up. The cost of maintaining the car has rocketed up. Petrol costs have rocketed up.
So now the prices go up to, in order to cover increasing expenses.
The other option is lower fares, which means less drivers on the road, as it’s barely worth it to go out as is right now (he’s often the only taxi driver out at night round us cause no one else things its financially worth it)

I haven’t used a taxi since my local bus became a 24 hour service. They’re pricing themselves out of the market.
