We would like to apologise to all our customers as our usual standards arenβt being met.
There is a national shortage of drivers affecting not just the taxi industry, but also the haulage industry with a shortage of HGV drivers too, which is affecting the delivery of goods to shops, pubs, restaurants etc.
The people of the York certainly do like to get out and about and party which is great news for the local economy!
This demand, together with our reduced driver numbers, has led to delays at times, for which we wholeheartedly apologise to all our customers. We really are sorry.
To restore our services levels to what they were before, we've have already started a recruitment campaign and are working to encourage drivers who have left the trade to return and also to attract new drivers to the trade.
In an attempt to recruit more drivers, we like many other Private Hire companies throughout the UK, will be having a fare increase. From 7.00am on Monday the 25th we will be increasing our fares by 50p on every booking and by a further Β£0.70pence from 3pm Friday afternoon till 7.00am Monday morning.
We are most grateful to everyone for being so understanding. We will continue to do all we can to improve service delivery.
If you could help by making your booking earlier than you would usually, allowing a little extra time, we would be most grateful.
And if you havenβt already done so, please download the York Cars taxi booking App to make your bookings. You can download the App here
