Taxi Service
Passenger cab service is a widespread and relatively reliable form of door-to-door public transport in Oradea. Anyone can order a taxi to an address, pick one from the taxi rank or just stop one in the street if it has no passengers.
The city has some very strict rules in order to control the taxi services. The number of taxis is limited. All taxis must be completely or partially painted in yellow, must have passenger side airbag and air conditioning. They must also have a yellow sign on their top with a red and green light to indicate if they are free.
There are several private companies running taxi services in Oradea. The most important and reliable are City - Taxi, Fulger, VIP Taxi, Start and Hello Taxi.
The fleet used by the cab companies consists mainly of small or medium-sized private passenger cars.
