Taxis in Wakefield
Sculpture city on the Calder — taxis for the Hepworth, Trinity, YSP, and the M1.
Wakefield is the cathedral city of the West Riding, rebuilt around art and sport: the Hepworth Wakefield gallery on the river, the Yorkshire Sculpture Park minutes away, Wakefield Trinity's Belle Vue ground, and the famous Chantry Chapel — one of only a few bridge chapels left in England — standing on the medieval bridge. The M1, M62 and A1 all meet here, Leeds Bradford Airport is forty minutes north, and Sandal Castle keeps the Wars of the Roses. Joe Maxi Taxis connects Wakefield passengers with licensed local drivers for Leeds, Sheffield, the airports, and every surrounding town — fixed fares, no surge pricing, 24/7. For larger groups, our trusted partner network can help with minibus hire in Wakefield.
