The system that should have already existed.
Tara Taxi isn’t trying to be the next ride-hailing app!
It’s a response to real frustrations: missed rides, disconnected systems, rising costs, and drivers being pushed to the edge, and so on.
This platform is a practical rebuild, not just for riders, but for drivers, taxi firms, and councils too.
It's built on trust, fairness, and proper local control.
What is Tara Taxi?
Tara Taxi reimagines transportation with fairness at its core. Not just another booking platform - we're building a better system from scratch.
We stand for transparency, fair rates, and community focus. Every ride strengthens an equitable transportation ecosystem.
No surge pricing. No algorithmic nonsense. No data games.
  • Council-approved fares
  • Honest subscription benefits
  • Clear payment options
  • Local authority involvement
  • Built for real-world needs
It's a platform, not a takeover.
