Travel with Confidence - assurance mark for drivers and operators

Travel with Confidence - assurance mark

The 'Travel with Confidence' mark indicates that the taxi/private hire driver has gained safety accreditation through completing a tailored programme of support to keep customers and workers safe from Covid-19.

Drivers who display the mark will be expected to demonstrate high levels of cleanliness, infection control and understanding of how to reduce risk to customers. Drivers should be able to explain their individual business risk assessment to you if you ask and they should also explain the ways in which they reduce risk, such as what cleaning products are used and how often.

Compliance checks are made by the council that issued the driver with his licence. This ensures that the Travel with Confidence standards are maintained and you can be confident that the driver is taking steps to minimise the risk of infection.

Booking accredited vehicles

Please support the businesses that have gone that extra mile to keep passengers safe, by looking out for the mark on the transport providers vehicles.

When booking a private hire vehicle for a journey you can ask the operator company if they have an accredited driver available if that would be your preference.

Accredited taxi drivers can be found on ranks, and accredited private hire drivers can be booked through private hire operators.
