Good Taxi Network adds UK-wide Events and Travel Information tool for licensed taxi drivers

# What launched Good Taxi Network has released an Events and Travel Information feature for licensed taxi drivers across the UK. The feature pulls together data on local events, airport and train arrivals, and taxi rank movement so drivers can see where passenger demand may be building during a shift.

# What it shows The service includes events such as concerts, football matches, theatre performances and exhibitions, and displays when events are expected to finish. It also surfaces arrival information for airports and train stations and gives a picture of taxi rank activity. Drivers can use the timings alongside what they already know about venues, ranks and usual demand patterns to choose where to position themselves between fares.

# Network positions the tool Good Taxi Network says the feature is designed to support drivers rather than replace their experience. The company frames the tool as an additional source of information drivers can combine with local knowledge and existing booking systems. The launch extends the firm's existing driver tools: the Personal Booking Page (an individual booking page and QR code to convert passengers into direct customers) and the Fare Logger (a way to record work and review fares, hourly earnings, targets and third-party commissions).

# How drivers can get started The system has been built to work in small towns as well as big cities. Good Taxi Network says it does not need large numbers of drivers in an area to launch: a single licensed driver can create a Personal Booking Page, use the Fare Logger and access events and travel data for a new area. That driver can then invite other trusted drivers to join and grow local network coverage.

# Driver feedback included One licensed taxi driver who has used the tool reported it helped them understand how taxi ranks move and when events are about to finish, allowing them to pick up more street work and reduce reliance on taxi apps and circuits.

# What the tool aims to deliver for drivers

• Demand planning: timing information at events and arrivals to anticipate surges.
• Complementary workflows: combines with direct booking and earnings-tracking tools already offered by Good Taxi Network.
• Low barrier to entry: operable by a single driver in any licensed area.

# Practical limits and variables

# What to watch

• How broadly drivers adopt the system in different licensing areas, which affects local data richness.
• Whether the network draws partnerships with venues or transport hubs to improve data accuracy.
• How drivers combine the Events and Travel Information feature with Fare Logger insights to optimise routes and earnings.

# Bottom line The feature gives licensed taxi drivers an extra, consolidated information source to plan where to look for work. It's marketed as an add-on to drivers' own experience and to Good Taxi Network's booking and earnings tools, with a simple onboarding path that starts with a single driver in any UK licensing area.
