Uber app to add taxi and limo bookings in Dubai
Dubai taxis and limousines will be bookable by Uber after the Roads and Transport Authority made an agreement with the ride-hailing company. Uber will be able to offer over 14,541 vehicles, including 4,700 limousines and 9,841 taxis, and will contribute to the Dubai Vision 2021 by reducing vehicle use through carpooling. It is the first agreement Uber has signed with a government entity in the region and is the second of its kind for Dubai’s officials, who have also enlisted Dubai-based booking company Careem. Fares will still be 30% higher than for usual taxis hailed on the road.
