Taxi bookings in the Upper North Shore

The Upper North Shore follows the Pacific Highway and the T1 North Shore line from Roseville up to Hornsby and Wahroonga. It's leafy and residential, with large blocks, steep driveways and bushland on the valley edges.

The Pacific Highway is the spine of the area and is slow at peak times. Many houses are set back from the road, so a note about where to stop helps the driver.

For Upper North Shore taxi bookings, call Northern Silver Taxi Sydney on 1300 046 956 or request your taxi online. If the pickup is urgent, call to check driver availability.
