Taxi Fares Going Up 24%

The Autoridad Reguladora de Servicios Públicos (Aresep) on Monday approved a hike in taxi fares of 24%, giving in to the pressures of the Federación Nacional de Taxis.

The taxi association argued that operating costs, like gasoline, circulation rights, salaries, etc, have all gone up, justifying an increase.

The new taxi rates that will take effect in January will see the first kilometre jump to ¢510 colones from the current ¢455.
