TRANSPORTATION FOR THE ELDERLY AND HANDICAPPED IN GOETEBORG

In Gothenburg, the Gothenburg Transit Authority has the responsibility for the transportation of elderly and disabled. The more severly handicapped travel aboard special small buses. For the more physically able handicapped, the Transit Authority has an arrangement with the Taxi Cab Company of Gothenburg purchasing transport service. The traveller contacts the Taxi Company directly and requests transportation just as anyone would request taxi services, however they will pay with special cheques. The fares are subsidized. Volume of service is given in tabulated form. Types of vehicle, costs and staff are also discussed.
