THE cost of a running a cab is going up in part of Worcestershire. Wychavon District Council looks set to increase the annual cost of operating a Hackney carriage by 6.5 per cent to £160. The fee is slightly lower for a private hire vehicle with a planned increase to £144, with the rise proposed from April 2011. Running a cab firm is also set to become more expensive, with an operator's licence rising from £70 to £75 with councillors expected to rubber stamp the increases on Wednesday, October 20. Wychavon’s prices stack up favourably against neighbouring Worcester City Council where it costs £399 annually for cabs to get an operating licence. This fee has been fixed for two years. In Malvern Hills, operators pay £272.50 a year. http://www.worcesternews.co.uk/news/845 ... o_operate/ |
