Driving this week on the roads, it is obvious to see that people are appreciating the lessening of restrictions. It is also nice to be seeing taxis around, even though there is little work at present.
​
The Victorian regulator, Commercial Passenger Vehicles Victoria (CPVV), advised us last week that there has been a 2% increase in MPTP fares week on week, on top of a previous week’s increase of 6%.
Having said that, this is off an incredibly low base, and we are well down on the number of trips on a year-on-year comparison. 

So what can we do to bring our businesses back to where they were? I believe we are coming into a time of great opportunity, if we play our cards right. 

With more and more people slowly coming back to work there is a lot of fear in the community regarding public transport. This creates opportunities for the commercial passenger transport operators, as people want to move from place to place in comfort and more importantly in safety. 

We are now in a time where there is no longer safety in numbers! 

This is the time to re-build our businesses, from the ground up. None of us can afford to take the level of clientele we used to have for granted and just assume it
will magically come back to us. It won’t. Instead, we have to reach out and let our clients know that we are still here, are available for work, and that we have their safety as our number one priority. 

Now, more than ever, our businesses are about us, as individuals. Now is the time to redevelop our personal networks, our personal connections both with our clients and with other drivers who we trust and know will look after our clients like they are their own.

Transport Alliance Australia (TAA), together with our partner DRVR Training, is pleased to offer a FREE COVID-19 Hygiene Awareness Course that educates drivers to keep them and their passengers safe. It is a way for you to increase consumer confidence and assure your clients you are taking steps to ensure safety. Every driver receives a certificate and there are badges available to use for your business webpage, print and digital marketing.
​

DRVR Training also offers a number of other courses that may be of assistance to ensure your drivers and chauffeurs are offering the highest level of service. All training is both an educational tool and a marketing tool (point of difference) to reassure our clients that you are aware of the new reality and prepared to deal with it. For further information visit DRVR Training at www.drvrtraining.com. ​

I would love to hear from you all to see what we can do to assist you and I wish you all much success going forward. You can email me at andre.baruch@taa-national.com.au. 

I look forward to “seeing” you all on 25 June, and having coffee together when we are allowed to. 

Best wishes, stay safe out there.
