1. The Villeurbanne Taxi Rate Explained Simply

Officially Set

The Villeurbanne taxi rate was officially set on February 15, 2024. Taxi tariffs in France are officially set by cities or districts. The taxi tariff Villeurbanne was last set in February 2024 and published in the official tariff ordinance. It is binding for all taxis and taxi companies within the compulsory driving area and may not be exceeded or undercut. This is ensured by officially calibrated taximeters installed in the taxis.

How the fare is made up under the Villeurbanne taxi rate:

The Villeurbanne taxi tariff is based on a combination of a base fare, an included distance, and additional charges for longer trips or waiting times. The tariff applies differently depending on the time of day, with "day" rates from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm and "night" rates from 7:00 pm to 7:00 am. For every taxi ride, the fare calculation begins with a base fare.

During the day, the base fare is 8.00€. This base fare covers the first 2.55 km of your journey. If your trip is longer than 2.55 km, each additional kilometer is charged at 1.96€ per km. For night travel, the base fare remains 8.00€, but it only includes the first 1.70 km of the ride. Beyond 1.70 km at night, the cost is 2.94€ per km.

If the taxi is required to wait during your journey, there is an extra charge for waiting time. This charge is 39.47€ per hour, regardless of whether it is day or night. The waiting time fee applies when the taxi is stopped or moving very slowly, such as in heavy traffic or when waiting for the passenger.

The Villeurbanne taxi tariff provides a clear structure so you know how your fare is determined before you start your journey. The final fare will be the sum of the base fare, any additional distance charges, and any waiting time fees incurred during the ride.
