Peeve on taxis part 2
IT IS confirmed: Taxi fares are going up next Monday.
Prompted by rocketing fuel costs, Singapore's largest taxi operator ComfortDelGro is increasing its flag down fare by 10 cents to $2.50 for regular taxis - the first hike in 12 years - and by 20 cents to $2.80 for Mercedes cabs.
It is also doubling the $1 peak period surcharge to $2 and will start the morning peak period a half-hour earlier, at 7am instead of 7.30am.
And every 10 cents racked up on the meter will carry passengers over a shorter distance - 210m instead of the current 225m on trips of 10km or less. After 10km, 10 cents will be charged for every 175m instead of 200m now.
Based on an average 9km trip during off-peak hours, passengers will pay about 5 per cent more, and on a 20km trip, about 8 per cent more. During peak hours, the increases for these trips range from 13 per cent to 15 per cent.
