IPART has completed our review into maximum rank and hail taxi fares to apply from 1 July 2025
IPART has completed our review and published our Final Report on maximum rank and hail taxi fares to apply from 1 July 2025. Fares for rank and hail taxi services are regulated by the Government. This is an important mechanism to protect customers who are not in a position to shop around for point to point transport prices from being charged excessive fares.
Our Final Report makes recommendations for urban and country fare schedules, a fixed fare trial for Sydney Airport to Sydney CBD (postcode 2000) trips, annual indexation to adjust fares in future until the next review, the application of the maxi taxi surcharge and customer receipts.
TfNSW will consider IPART’s recommendations when setting new maximum fares through a fares order to apply from 1 July 2025.
