Taxi prices in Guangzhou will be charged according to the new standard

Although it has not been settled that the final plan for Guangzhou's taxi fare adjustment has been settled, there is no doubt about the cancellation of fuel charges and the adjustment of the starting price. At that time, there will be nearly 17,000 taxis in the city that need to be re-adjusted and time-consuming. It takes 45 days. Yesterday, Zhang Qide, deputy inspector of the Guangzhou Municipal Price Bureau, said that during the adjustment period, the vehicles that had been transferred and the vehicles that had not been adjusted would be charged according to the new plan, and the notification would be posted on taxis.

When will the taxi pricing plan come out? Zhang Qide said that it is still unknown and the results of the discussion have been submitted to the municipal government. The finalized plan and timetable will be determined by the municipal government.

Although the plan and timetable have not been determined, it is no doubt that the cancellation of fuel charges and the adjustment of the starting price will occur. By then, the adjustment of nearly 17,000 taxis in the entire city will be a major project. Zhang Qide said that now the Price Bureau is discussing how to charge fees and other details during the adjustment period to prepare for price adjustment. On August 15th, taxi companies also opened an internal ventilation meeting. The theme of the meeting was that taxis might have price adjustments in the future, and companies should make preparations for adjusting watches according to the number of vehicles.

Zhang Qide said that from the date of the announcement of the launch of the tariff linkage within 50 days (including 50 days), taxi companies should adjust the taxi meter according to regulations. During the period, taxi operators who did not adjust the meter were added or refunded to passengers at the freight rate of RMB 1 yuan/trip on the basis of the original freight rate; 50 days after the announcement of the freight price linkage (excluding 50 days), regardless of rental price. Whether the car company has adjusted the metering device, it is not allowed to add or return the additional price. During the transition period, in order to avoid disputes, it may be necessary to put a notice on the taxi in a unified manner. “It's like the label for fuel surcharges is now attached to taxis.”

It is reported that at present, there are nearly 17,000 taxis in the city. According to the speed of 400 vehicles per day, it takes about 45 days to complete all adjustments. The Price Bureau is currently studying how to speed up the adjustment time, such as the plan to adjust overnight watches. In addition, a total of 2 million yuan will be required to adjust the schedule. This part of the cost will be borne entirely by the taxi company.
