You'll find metered taxis (usually black and of the London sedan type) at stands all over the city center. Most have radio dispatch. Some have also been adapted to take wheelchairs. You can hail a cab on the street if its for hire" sign is illuminated. A typical ride from the city center to the West End or the South Side costs around £6.
