PHOENIX — Ride-hailing company Lyft announced Monday that it plans to end service at the Phoenix airport in January if proposed fees supported by the City Council are enacted.

Councilman Sal DiCiccio, who has spoken out against the fees, released a letter Lyft sent to the Phoenix Aviation Department on Nov. 4, which states plans to end operations at Sky Harbor International Airport after the holidays.

“This tax punishes riders who rely on Lyft for affordable and convenient transportation to and from the airport, and unfairly burdens them with a $26 million price tag tied to the PHX Sky Train — a capital improvement project that is unrelated to their choice of transportation,” the letter stated.
