The Alexandra, Randburg, Midrand, Sandton Taxi Associations announced that they'll hike taxi prices by 172%. A taxi from Alex to Sandton will go up from R11 to R30. Taxis owners say the current 70% capacity is killing their businesses so commuters must fund the shortfall

@Escort_emmanuel @SayEntrepreneur Petrol went up again last week.
