The transport ministry has set fixed fares for taxis travelling to and from the airports, starting on March 1.
The fares include urban and rural taxi services.
In a written statement on Friday, Transport Minister Yiannis Karousos called on taxi drivers to implement the newly set fares “as one of the steps taken to improve the taxi transport sector in Cyprus”.
The decision aimed to solve a longstanding problem mainly concerning the appropriate information of visitors, tourists and others who use the service.
“The establishment of fixed fares is expected to give credibility to taxi transport thus improving professionalism and increase passenger traffic,” the ministry said.
According to the ministry no driver is allowed to charge lower or higher than those rates.
