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

Taxi dispatch system calibrated for hourly hire work in Waterford. NTA-compliant SPSV dispatch. 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.

What makes hourly hire dispatch in Waterford 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 Waterford?

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 Waterford hourly hire dispatch to TaxiCloud?
