小黃共乘省

全台第一宗合法上路的計程車共乘措施，最快九月就要在台北市上路。北市府目前訂出兩條路線，一個是從台北捷運劍潭站往文化大學，另一條則是提出從捷運石牌站往天母圓環這條路線。這也將會為民眾省不少錢。

長長一排人龍，等著公車要上陽明山，有時候在交通尖峰時段，還得等下一班。

“看有時候人太多的話，都要等超過半小時，因為就是人加上來，又爆滿了”

看中從捷運劍潭站轉乘公車往文化大學的學生多，台北市政府規劃計車程共乘路線，從捷運劍潭站到山仔后，坐滿4個人開車，跳表車資大約260到320元，平均分攤下來，每人65到85元。

“50到70(元)都可以，85的話，我覺得太貴了”

市府還規劃了另一條，主要服務上班族及家庭主婦的路線。從捷運石牌站到天母圓環，即使沒有坐滿4人，照樣開車，而且每人一律只收30元。這跟原本跳表計價120元左右，最多省下90元。

這兩條共乘路線和計價方式，最快在今年9月，就會上路。

Taipei plans to launch taxi share program on two routes in September (2013/07/14)

As early as September, the Taipei City Government will inaugurate the first two taxi pool routes in Taiwan. The routes will be from the Jiantan MRT Station to Chinese Culture University and from Shipai MRT Station to the Tienmu Roundabout Circle. The taxi pool will allow passengers to share taxi fares and save money on transportation.

Here is a long queue of people waiting for the bus to Yangmingshan. During rush hour, some people even have to wait for the next bus.

When there are too many people, you may have to wait half an hour because when people board the bus it quickly becomes full.

Many of the passengers are Chinese Culture University students who board busses to their campus from the Jiantan MRT Station. For this reason, the Taipei City Government has planned a special taxi pool route traveling from Jiantan MRT to Shanzihou. A normal metered taxi costs between NT$260 to NT$320 which translates between NT$65 to NT$85 if four people share the ride.

I think (the fare) should be around NT$50-70, but if it’s NT$85, I think that’s too expensive.

The Taipei City government is also planning another taxi pool route, mainly targeting service staff and housewives. The route goes from Shipai MRT Station to the Tienmu Roundabout Circle. If four people share a taxi, each person would only need to pay NT$30. A single passenger fare would typically cost NT$120 so one could be saving NT$90 through this program. 

These two new taxi pool routes could be implemented by September at the earliest, giving commuters another means of saving money.
