Taxi technology com- pany Autocab has announced an ag- reement to supply leading black cab operator CityFleet with its Ghost book- ing and dispatch system, and cus- tom-branded pas- senger app. Owned by Singa- pore-based mob- ility company Com- fortDelGro, which operates 41,600 vehicles across Asia and Europe, City- Fleet operates in three UK cities – London, Liverpool and Aberdeen – under the brands
ComCab and Diala- Cab.
CityFleet’s corpo- rate and public sector clients also include the 32 Lon- don councils as well as some of Britain’s largest banks. Autocab will be de- livering a next-gen- eration booking platform to City- Fleet’s corporate customers that delivers unparal- leled duty of care, the very latest user experience and a feature-rich corpo- rate booking sol- ution to accommo- date the intricacies
Rudy Tan (l) and Safa Alkateb shake on the deal
of global corporate ground transporta- tion requirements across Europe. The partnership will also add CityFleet’s vehicles to the iGo network, a collabo-
rative fare-sharing platform which in- cludes more than 150,000 private hire cars globally utilised by business trav- ellers, trip aggre- gators and travel
management com- panies. Rudy Tan, CEO at CityFleet, said: “We are really pleased to be working with Autocab and bring- ing our fleet onto the iGo network. This agreement will enhance the service we provide to our corporate clients, which include some of the largest bank- ing brands in the world, and ensure passengers are re- ceiving a speedy, safe and friendly service nationwide and across Europe.” Safa Alkateb, CEO at
Autocab, said:
“Black cabs remain a key part of the trans- port network in UK urban areas. Their local knowledge is second to none – they know our roads and streets inside out. As it becomes more difficult for ordinary vehicles to gain access to the heart of the city cen- tre due to regulatory controls around con- gestion and emis- sions, the black cab is becoming an ever- more
important
element in the mosaic of urban ground transport.”
