Member organisations include taxi organisations, limousine services and shuttle services across the country. The range of member organisations include co-operatives with 700 plus taxis to single unit operators providing specialised niche services. The vehicles available from members include sedans, limousines, wheelchair access vans and cars, minibuses and others. Our members travel an estimated 30 million kilometres a year and carry over 60 million passengers. Our member organisations pride themselves on meeting quality levels which include vehicle standards and driver training.

Mission

Our mission is to help members provide efficient and economic passenger transport services to meet the needs of the travelling public, and to be the advocate of the operators of for-hire services (taxis, limousines, total mobility services and shuttles) at national and local levels.
