Question for Manchester folk?

How much roughly do you reckon a taxi wud cost to go 4 miles from Manchester Picadilly station at 9 in morning????

Withington to be precise

roughly about 拢10-15.

Hi

I'm no expert but I do get taxi's quite a lot from town.

I live in stockport which having a quick nosy on a map isn't a million miles away from Withington and on an off-peak time it cost's me roughly 拢10, even at 3am it only cost's around 拢15 - 拢18.

So I'd approximate at least 拢10-拢15 probably a little more depending on the traffic at that time in the morning so MAX (and I stress that I reckon max of 拢20)

I know I'm the first to answer and someone might totally disrepute it but that's my estimate.

Hope it helps some

About 8 quid, private hire will be cheaper than a black cab

From Didsbury to town costs about 拢8. But that's before midnight. Ring them and ask. If you're in student-ville, they'll probably offer discounts.

More to the point, the 42 runs all through the night. Why do you need a taxi?!

I reckon it will be about 8 or 9 pound. I pay between 6 and 7 to to Rusholme. I find it a bit cheaper to go home via black cab from Oxford Road train station so if it's an option then go that way.

i predict 拢20+

or why dnt you phone them ask for a qoute?

that ay you'll get a better estimate/ exact amount


lol, you nearly wasting your points by asking these questions

About a tenner but there are a couple of buses that go there and are a hell of a lot cheaper!
They go from Manchester Piccadilly Bus Station a 5 minute walk from the train station

You wont get much change from 拢10. But there are lots of buses around Piccadilly at that time in the morning. Check the GMPTE website for bus numbers and where they stop.

Ignore Sarah above. Manchester is as safe as any other large city in the UK.

Has the official taxi prices before and after midnight for city licensed black cabs. It is illegal for them to charge you more than this. You should negotiate a mini cab rate in advance.

Manchester is very rough and they often charge you a premium to go into the gun crime areas. I would say about 60 quid.
