The minimum price of a journey will increase from £3 to £3.40 and a new tariff for vehicles carrying five or more passengers is being introduced.
Stirling Council’s Planning and Regulation Panel has agreed to increase taxi fares and introduce a new tariff for larger vehicles carrying 5 or more passengers.
Under the new fares, the minimum fare for Tariff 1 will increase from £3.00 to £3.40 and Tariff 2 will increase from a minimum of £3.50 to £4.00. Tariff 3 will be applied as a 60% increase over the Tariff 1 rate. The incremental distance on charges for journeys in excess of ½ mile will be reduced to 86 yards from 18th of a mile.
It's the first increase in taxi fares by Stirling Council since December 2019.
