With the announcement of plans to increase taxi tariff and introduce a new minimum fare of Dh12 per trip, the capital’s regular taxi users have begun to look for other modes of transport.
The Abu Dhabi Integrated Transport Centre announced its plans to revise taxi fares in the capital on Monday as part of an effort to enhance the quality of its services.
The revised rates, which will come into effect in a month, will see a minimum Dh12 (about $3.25) fare for all trips.
Taxi booking fees will also increase from Dh3 during the day to Dh4 and from Dh4 to Dh5 in the evening. The waiting time charge per minute will remain at 50 fils for both day and night trips.
