The Ministry of Transport is pleased to announce that arrangements have been made with the Gibraltar Taxi Association to provide a 24-hour Taxi Service over the Christmas period.
7 Private Hire Vehicles will be working 24 hours a day from the 24th December 2024 to 6th January 2025. Each one will be working three shifts throughout this period. This is in addition to the usual Taxi Service which is offered throughout the year.
The Ministry would like to remind the public of the dangers of drinking and driving with such arrangements being made to ensure reliable and alternative transport is available to all, including not only the enhanced taxi service, but also the free night bus which will run over the Christmas period.
Rides can be arranged by calling their phone line 20070052 or using the GTA Taxi App.
The Minister of Transport, the Hon Prof John Cortes, said: “I am very pleased to continue working with the GTA to further improve the taxi service and am very grateful to the drivers who will be working through the festive season while others are enjoying the break. My Ministry will continue to work with all stakeholders through 2025 to further promote sustainable transport and assist the community as much as possible. And we all wish everyone a very Happy Christmas and New Year!”
