If you’ve ever tried to get a ride between towns in Central Kentucky, you already know it’s not always easy. Most ride apps focus on short, in-town trips, and many taxi companies won’t go out of county at all.

At Clark Taxi, we regularly run out-of-town routes connecting Winchester with nearby communities. These trips are a normal part of our day, and they’re priced clearly so there are no surprises.

Below are the most common routes we run and what riders typically use them for.

Winchester ↔ Richmond

This is one of our most frequent out-of-town routes.

We handle trips between Winchester and Richmond for:

  • Work and shift changes
  • Appointments and medical visits
  • One-way trips when a return ride isn’t available
  • Riders who want a straightforward alternative to rideshare apps

This route runs along I-75 and is one we’re very familiar with. Riders appreciate knowing the price up front and having a reliable pickup on both ends.

Winchester ↔ Mt. Sterling

Another common route we serve is between Winchester and Mt. Sterling.

People use this route for:

  • Medical appointments
  • Connecting to family or housing
  • Shopping and errands
  • Transfers between towns when no local taxi is available

We frequently pass through Mt. Sterling as part of scheduled trips and are able to accommodate rides when availability allows.

Winchester ↔ Lexington (Select Trips)

While we don’t operate as a Lexington-based taxi, we do handle certain trips to and from Lexington, especially for:

  • Hospitals and medical facilities
  • Pre-scheduled appointments
  • Organizational or third-party transportation

These trips are planned carefully and priced based on distance and time so riders know exactly what to expect.

How Out-of-Town Pricing Works

Out-of-town trips are not metered.

Instead, pricing is based on:

  • Total miles driven
  • Total time involved in the trip
  • A clear, upfront calculation that includes applicable taxes

This approach avoids surprises and makes longer trips predictable for both riders and drivers.

When to Call

If you’re planning an out-of-town trip:

  • Call as early as you can, especially during busy periods
  • Same-day trips are sometimes possible depending on availability
  • We’ll always be upfront about whether we can take the trip

If we can help, we will. If we can’t, we’ll tell you honestly.
