Erie Yellow Cab Rate Schedule
*PA Public Utilities Commission #SP-28209 allows cab drivers to recover the elevated cost of
fuel via a charge of $.65 per trip.This charge, which is added to the normal flag drop is
recalculated monthly. Another constituent of our rates is a recent 1% increase granted by the
PUC to offset a 343% increase in PUC assessments charged to all Taxi Companies in PA.
Average Fare from Erie International Airport to....
Estimated Fares to Nearby Cities
These estimates are based on mileage from center-city Erie to center-city
of the destination. Your charges will be based on the actual mileage of
your trip at $1.87 per mile.
How does the Taximeter Work? Taximeters have an internal clock and a connection to the Vehicle Speed Sensor. They use these tools to determine how far the cab has travelled and how much time has been spent waiting (at a traffic signal, for example). The rates on this page are given in a per-mile format to facilitate your estimate of the cost of your trip. Our taximeters actually measure sevenths of a mile. If you get into a taxi ($1.57) and travel 1/7 of a mile with no stops (33 cents), you will be charged $1.57 + 33 cents + $0.65 fuel surcharge, totalling $2.55 Time delays such as traffic signals, railroad crossings and heavy traffic will affect the cost of your ride. |
