Southport, your Uber has arrived



The ride-on-demand taxi service has come to the town

Uber taxis have come to Southport .

The taxi-ordering company has gone live in the borough.

Sefton Council’s Licensing Team granted Uber permission to cover the whole of Sefton - including Southport - last year.

A spokesman for Sefton Council said: “After satisfactorily responding to all our questions concerning compliance with our conditions and relevant legislation, Uber Britannia Ltd were granted a one year Private Hire Operators Licence in June, 2015.

“The company agreed to abide by all our operator conditions and licensing legislation and any breaches of this may have an impact on any option to renew the licence later this year.”

An ‘Uber Southport’ Facebook page was set up yesterday (Wednesday)

And according to the page, the service is recruiting drivers in the Southport area.

One post said: “Drivers WANTED! £300 sign up reward until 24th April!”

According to Uber.com, a journey from Lord Street in Southport to Liverpool Road in Birkdale costs between “£3-4” in an UberX car and “£4-6” in an UberXL.

(UberX seats four riders and are usually saloon cars. UberXL seats at least six passengers and will be a minibus or SUV)
