Lucknow Cabs

If you go to Lekhraj Gold in Munshipulia, you’ll find us at Shop No. 31. This is where we run Lucknow Cabs. It’s a small shop, mostly used for coordinating drivers and taking calls from people needing a ride. We spend a lot of time looking at maps of Indira Nagar and the rest of Lucknow to see where the traffic is bad. The office isn't much to look at, just a few phones and a big logbook for the bookings. We’ve been operating out of this spot for a while, and the drivers usually stop by between trips to grab a quick break or check the schedule. It gets pretty hectic during the morning rush and late at night when the trains come in at the station. We try to keep the cars moving and make sure there’s always someone available when the phone rings. It’s a lot of juggling schedules and talking to drivers over the phone. We know the roads around Munshipulia like the back of our hands. Sometimes things get delayed because of the weather or roadwork, but we just deal with it as it comes. It's a local business through and through, run by people who live right here in the neighborhood. We just focus on getting people from one place to another without too much fuss. There is usually a bit of tea and some snacks on the counter for whoever stops by the shop between shifts.
