Digital Taxi Stands: Informed Choice Reduces Waiting Time

We have investigated waiting times for taxis at the airport taxi stand at Oslo Airport Gardermoen, under two different regulatory systems, one allowing taxis to wait at a taxi stand directly in front of the airport and at a near depot and one only allowing for waiting at the depot. We find that waiting times for taxis dropped dramatically when the possibility to wait just outside the terminal was removed.

Abstract

We have investigated waiting times for taxis at the airport taxi stand at Oslo Airport Gardermoen, under two different regulatory systems, one allowing taxis to wait at a taxi stand directly in front of the airport and at a near depot and one only allowing for waiting at the depot. We find that waiting times for taxis dropped dramatically when the possibility to wait just outside the terminal was removed.
