A metered taxi is convenient as a transportation
option
In Kolkata,
booking a taxi during the peak hours can be a challenging task. While you can
look for other transportations, it can be still a discomfort traveling in them.
Think of traveling in an overcrowded train or bus when you want to reach
somewhere without a single crease on your shirt. ‘Impossible’ is the word that
will come to your mind. For the ones who are claustrophobic, traveling in
crowded buses or trains isn’t comfortable at all. Thus for such situations, it is
best to call a metered taxi. Through a metered taxi, you can reach anywhere you
want in a comfortable manner. You won’t have to share it with others and enjoy
the journey.
Booking metered taxi through an app……
Nowadays
cabs can be booked at the comfort of your home. There are apps through which you
can place your request which will include your pickup point and destination.
Once you have done this successfully, your request will be sent to all the
taxis close to your pickup place. The one closest will reach to you and take
you to the mentioned destination.
This advance
booking system is definitely advantageous than the old way of going out and
calling a car. Booking an app is very much convenient for a long distance
travel. You won’t have to face long taxi lines and any other inconvenience in
the eleventh hour.
Metered taxis or other rental cab
services?
Metered or yellow and AC taxis were popular in
Kolkata since a long time. There was however, a significant drop in this
popularity with the evolvement of several cab services by different companies.
These were preferred over other transportations by the office goers. But within
a short time, people found that these services can be costly. The person has to
pay a certain amount once he has booked a cab and then is charged per hour.
Thus people considered it is better to call a taxi in Kolkata than other cabs.
With the scope of booking a taxi through an app, the office goers and other
residents in the city have heaved a sigh of relief. The idea to call a yellowtaxi has become preferable again.
