Hourly + as-directed vehicle hire · Cork

Hourly + as-directed taxi hire dispatch in Cork — block-hours, fixed driver, transparent meter.

Système de répartition de taxis calibré pour le travail de hourly hire à Cork. Répartition SPSV conforme à la NTA. Block-hour bookings, as-directed driver, transparent billing.

Hourly (or 'as-directed') hire is the model where a rider books a vehicle for a fixed block of hours and directs the driver to multiple destinations during the block. The dispatch system has to lock the vehicle out of auto-dispatch for the booked window, surface a clear hourly meter to the rider, and bill the actual block consumed plus any overage.

Key takeaways

  • Block-hour bookings, as-directed driver, transparent billing.
  • Built for Cork hourly hire work — live dispatch, driver app and pricing in one console.
  • Migrate an existing Cork base to TaxiCloud without losing your hourly hire workflow.

What makes hourly hire dispatch in Cork hard?

Hourly hire fails when the vehicle is auto-dispatched to a passing on-demand trip mid-block. The Aurora console locks the vehicle out of auto-dispatch for the entire booked window; the driver app shows the hourly meter and elapsed block-time so both driver and rider see the same number.

How does TaxiCloud run hourly hire dispatch in Cork?

Pricing supports per-block-hour rates, overage rates, and waiting-time surcharges. Receipts itemise the block, overage, and any add-ons (parking, tolls).

How do you migrate Cork hourly hire dispatch to TaxiCloud?

Corporate accounts that use hourly hire heavily (production crews, executive day-rate work, event-day shuttles) configure default block sizes and overage thresholds at the account record.
