Taxi fares are to increase in Dumfries and Galloway

The taxi trade in Dumfries and Galloway is set for a shake-up after being hit hard by the pandemic.


Taxi fares will increase from £4.50 to £5.50 for the first mile and a half after Dumfries and Galloway Council agreed to drive up charges from March 1, 2023.


This is the first price hike in 15 years and comes following increased costs in fuel and other charges.
