Taxi fare review 2024

Closed 12 Aug 2024

Opened 31 Jul 2024

Results expected 30 Sep 2024

Feedback expected 9 Dec 2024

Overview

The City of Edinburgh Council reviews taxi fares every 18 months and must consult on any proposals to change the taxi fare tariff.

As part of this review, consultation is being undertaken with the taxi trade, public and stakeholders.

This survey will take no more than five minutes to complete and we thank you for participating in our survey.

This survey is only concerned with 'taxi' fares - these are the London style black cabs in Edinburgh - they can be hired by on street flagdown or at a taxi rank.

Why your views matter

Consultation with the public is an important element of Jacobs' review of taxi fares.  We want to hear from both users and non-users of taxis in Edinburgh to understand your views about taxi fares.

What happens next

A report and recommendations will feed in to a report to the Regulatory Committee on 30 September 2024. The committee will fix taxi fares thereafter.
