Oaxaca taxi sector modernization and disputes

Overview

The Oaxaca Secretariat of Mobility (Semovi) recently introduced modernization initiatives for the city’s taxi sector. These efforts included the launch of the ‘TaxSí’ application, designed to provide fare transparency and vehicle identification, alongside the ‘Taxi Gunaa’ initiative aimed at increasing female participation in public transport.

However, taxi concessionaires have since denounced the ‘TaxSí’ program, citing technical failures and a lack of transparency. Critics claim the application frequently displays fares significantly lower than those established by Semovi. Additionally, concessionaires have raised concerns regarding the legality of the program, noting that the private company managing the concession has not been identified and that Semovi has declined requests to disclose the bidding process, contract details, and the legal basis for the platform's tariffs.
