Abstract

As one of the most popular modes of public transportation around the world, taxi services often see their effectiveness impeded by weather elements such as rainfall, which makes it difficult for people to get a taxi. Existing literature has examined the relationship between taxi demand and rainfall, revealing a lack of understanding of the connection between rainfall and taxi supply. Moreover, Singapore remains underrepresented in studies on this relationship. This study contributes to the literature by providing nuance to the commonly held belief that rain value is negatively correlated with lower taxi availability. Further research may consider exploring the alternative causes of decreased taxi availability and incorporating private ride-hailing services in their investigations.
