Can't be bothered looking this up, but what precisely is the 'Guildford' model?
Of course, Guildford was maybe the only council that's substantially reduced tariffs across the board, and wasn't it unsuccessfully challenged in the courts?
(Except, perhaps, when tariffs are reduced as some sort of council amalgamation.)
But didn't realise it was some sort of nationally recognised model
Proposed taxi tariff changes in Vale of White Horse
https://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/24120 ... ite-horse/
Vale of White Horse District Council is conducting a public consultation on proposed taxi tariff changes.
The council is considering altering the current taxi tariff, introduced in October 2022, using the 'Guildford model', a nationally recognised method.
The plans are to change hiring charges and to start tariff two from 10pm instead of 11pm.
The consultation is primarily aimed at taxi drivers and proprietors licensed by the district council, but members of the public can also give their opinion.
The consultation will close at midnight on February 19 and, without issues, the tariff would take effect from February 20.
Taxis will then be given a month to update meters in line with new pricing.
If there are objections to the changes, the matter will be referred to the cabinet for review.
