- This is the total number of licensed taxi and private hire vehicles.
Taxis, also known as hackney carriages, are available for immediate hire and can be hailed on the street (known as “plying for hire”). They can also accept pre-bookings.
Private Hire Vehicles (PHVs), sometimes known as minicabs, must be pre-booked and cannot use taxi ranks. It is illegal for PHVs to ply for hire.
