Taxies’ maiden-trip ceremony

Xiannvshan Town, 20 kilometers from the Wulong county, attracts around 40,000 visitors to spend their summer vacation there each year. But for a long time, in addition to the tourist buses, there are no other serviceable vehicles. Consequently, it is very inconvenient for visitors to go out to buy food or handle some daily affairs.

In response, recently, Wulong District Traffic Commission has made an agreement with four local taxi companies. From now on to the end of this summer, those companies arrange ten taxies in Xiannvshan Town so as to provide traffic services for residents. In the future, more taxies will be provided according to the requirements.

It is reported that those taxis which are appointed to serve Xiannvshan Town still perform the county charging standard (start at 5 yuan), and the driver must not haggle with the customers which will harm the image of the industry and the town.

For the convenience of taking a taxi, the companies also post a call hotline—81120000 in Xiannvshan Town and every community of the resort. By dialing this number, visitors will have access to find the nearest taxi. (Translated by Song Zhipeng, Fathom Language Limited)
