This taxi service costs the same as any cab fare normally does, but it's accessibility and freedom re booking plus 24 hour operation means you can come and go as you please. The vehicles will each transport two wheelchairs plus three seated passengers. Average trips within Oshawa would be around $8.00. Other cab companies are wanting to compete with this service but do not have approval at the moment. Getting late...thanks for the reply and say hi to Robbie.
