Semi-Lockdown Announcement

A SEMI-LOCKDOWN HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED FOR THE NEXT 3 WEEKS

247 Cars Taxi Drivers are open as usual during COVID-19 Outbreak

We Are Key Workers

247 CARS DRIVERS ARE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE TO WORK as the UK Government did not ban travelling to or from work or stop public transport which we are part of.

We are considered KEY WORKERS as a lifeline to many vulnerable & isolated people.

Important Notice to Our Customers

Although we are open, we ask all of our loyal customers to think very carefully before venturing out. Ensure your journey is really necessary as we are operating on a reduced workforce with the added pressure of many smaller firms having closed down.

Passenger Restrictions for Your Safety

OUR OPERATORS WILL BE ASKING NUMBER OF PASSENGERS AND EXPLAIN ONLY 1 PASSENGER WILL BE CARRIED so we don't break the "2 person gathering rule".

Exception to the Rule:

One member of your own family who lives with you OR a carer is allowed to travel as an exception to this rule.

REMEMBER: We are trying to improve safety of all concerned.
