Hello,
SUMO brings the basic tools to build this kind of simulation
- networks,
- vehicles
- passengers
- routing
You will have to write a control script that determines the taxi to
dispatch and triggers re-routing of the selected taxi.
The taxi passengers can also be simulated explicitly.
The main client language for controlling a sumo simulation is python.
If you have no programming experience, expect a major learning curve.

regards,
Jakob
