Cab firm Aerial Capital Group loses legal bid to stop wheelchair booking system

A Canberra cab company has lost a legal bid to force the ACT government to abandon a wheelchair taxi booking system.

Aerial Capital Group launched court action after the government set up the centralised booking system in 2012 to provide easier access to wheelchair accessible taxis in the capital.

The system means all bookings for wheelchair-accessible taxis must go through the Wheelchair Accessible Taxi Centralised Booking Service.

The new regime requires Aerial, which operates the CanberraElite and Silver Service taxis in Canberra, to direct any WATS bookings to the WCBS.
