Taxi Service                              Taxi service can be an important backup option for other alternative forms of transport, such as allowing pedestrians to carry large loads back from a store, providing an emergency ride home when a cyclist has a medical or mechanical problem, or a Guareented ride home for a rideshare or transit commuter. Informal taxi service often develops in rural communities where certain motorists will drive their neighbors for a fee. In this role, Taxi Improvements can be an important support for TDM efforts to reduce personal automobile ownership and use, and encourage use of alternative modes.

Taxi service can be improved by:

1. Increasing the number of taxis in an area.

2.Increasing the quality of taxi vehicles (comfort, carrying capacity, reliability, safety), improving support services (such as radio dispatch), driver skill and courtesy.

3.Universal design of taxi vehicles, including accommodating people in wheelchairs and with large packages.
