New municipal decision introduces women-only taxi service in Munich

The City Council's Circle of Administration Committee has recently decided to continue the Women's Night Taxi program in Munich, providing a safe and reliable transportation option for women who may feel unsafe at night.

The program, which operates through a voucher system, will offer vouchers worth ten euros each to eligible women. These vouchers can be obtained from the Equal Opportunities Office for Women at the Town Hall, as well as at the "18.now" Town Hall clubbing event and during the "Safe Oktoberfest" action at the Oktoberfest.

One voucher is available per visit at the Citizen's Office, and in case of emergency, vouchers can be obtained from the Equal Opportunities Office for Women at the Town Hall. The Citizen's Office receives a limited quota of vouchers at the beginning of each month.

The Women's Night Taxi program is intended for all women, including trans women and women with the gender entry "diverse" or non-binary women. However, due to budget constraints, the circle of users is limited based on social criteria.

It is important to note that the specific standpoints (taxi stands or pick-up points) for Women's Night Taxis in Munich are not publicly available. For precise and current contact numbers and standpoints, it is best to consult the official Munich city transport website, local women's organizations, or taxi companies in Munich.

The Women's Night Taxi program offers a valuable service to women in Munich, providing a safer alternative for late-night travel. With vouchers available at various locations, it's easier than ever for eligible women to take advantage of this service.

The Women's Night Taxi program expansion involves offering vouchers for health-and-wellness, as safety is crucial for women's health and wellness, especially during nighttime. Eligible women can obtain vouchers for life-style improvements, such as attending health-and-wellness seminars or women's health workshops, in addition to the taxi service vouchers.
