⚠️ URGENT TRAVEL NOTICE: SIGNIFICANT DELAYS EXPECTED ⚠️
Attention all A Cabs Isle of Wight Limited Customers,

Please be advised that we are currently anticipating significant traffic delays across our network for the next 48 hours.

As shown in the recent traffic data, multiple road closures and heavy congestion are impacting key routes, particularly around Shanklin, Lake, and the surrounding areas.

📉 What this means for your journey:
Allow Extra Time: Please book your taxis much earlier than usual. We recommend adding at least 20–30 minutes of buffer time for time-sensitive travel (such as ferry or train connections).

Potential Fare Increases: Because our vehicles may be caught in stationary or slow-moving traffic, metered fares may be higher than standard estimates.

Service Impact: Dispatch times may be longer as our drivers navigate these bottlenecks.

Our Sincere Apologies
We understand how frustrating travel delays can be. Please rest assured that these circumstances are entirely beyond our control, and our drivers are doing their absolute best to get you to your destination safely and as quickly as possible.

We thank you for your continued patience and understanding during this period.

Nearly 2750 miles completed in 3 vehicles, at least 170 jobs all completed by 4 drivers since Friday morning. That brings a very tiring but incredible weekend to a close. I would like to thank our drivers for their time keeping and constant communication. And lastly a huge thank you to over 500 passengers who have travelled with us this weekend everything went smoothly. See you next year
