Ride-sharing service Uride is set to launch in Nanaimo on Dec. 2, and the company promises to be a cheaper alternative to grabbing a taxi.
"I can say with confidence that our rates will be cheaper than what the taxis are currently at," said Ravi Dhami, Uride’s Western Canada operations manager.
Before setting up in Nanaimo, Uride says it received feedback from people living and visiting the area saying they had a nearly impossible time finding a ride during certain times of the day.
