In June, a number of readers shared their experiences of trying to get home after nights out socialising in the city centre, with some stating they waited hours for a taxi, while others decided to just walk home. Some said they had tried to use the public transport options that were available, but these too were full to capacity.
“That’s always been the issue, as far as we’re concerned, that there is no other alternative to taxis at whatever time the buses and trains and the Luas stop,” McGuinness said. It is the first fare increase since 2018, when the average cost of a taxi journey rose by 4.5%. An increase that was planned to be implemented in 2020 was paused due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
“Also, drivers know where the demand is, so if you walk away from the stadium, there’s a good chance you will catch them when they are on their return journey from another fare. This is particularly useful for hailing a driver on the street.”
