Taxi-hailing company Bolt has increased its fare prices in a bid to cushion its restless army of drivers from record fuel prices that have eaten into their margins.

Bolt said the increased prices had been affected with the base fare now ranging from Sh70 to Sh100 across the Economy, Base, Boda and XL categories in Nairobi.
