Mobility & Accessibility

Deliver accessible transport with confidence.

Accessible transport requires more than simply allocating a vehicle. Passengers may require wheelchair-accessible vehicles, specialist equipment, assisted boarding, passenger escorts, safeguarding procedures or specific driver training.

MyRide helps transport operators, local authorities, healthcare providers and community transport organisations manage accessibility requirements from booking through to journey completion.

From wheelchair-accessible vehicles and passenger assistance through to healthcare transport and special educational needs services, MyRide provides the tools needed to deliver safe, reliable and compliant mobility services at scale.

Mobility & Accessibility

Built For Accessible Transport Operations

Many dispatch systems treat every booking the same. Accessible transport doesn't work that way.

Every passenger may have unique mobility requirements, support needs or safeguarding considerations. MyRide allows operators to capture, manage and act on those requirements throughout the entire journey lifecycle.

Drivers receive the information they need. Dispatchers maintain visibility. Passengers receive a safer and more personalised service.

Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle Management

Not every vehicle can fulfil every journey. Mission Control allows operators to identify and allocate specialist vehicles based on passenger requirements. Dispatch automatically considers vehicle suitability before allocating work.

  • Wheelchair accessible, rear access and side access vehicles
  • Tail lift and electric accessible vehicles
  • Specialist passenger transport

Passenger Mobility Profiles

Accessibility requirements should not need repeating on every booking. MyRide creates detailed passenger profiles that store important mobility and assistance information. The information follows the booking automatically.

  • Wheelchair and walking frame requirements
  • Visual and hearing impairments
  • Assistance needs, passenger notes, pickup preferences and drop-off instructions

Assisted Travel Management

Some passengers require additional support during travel. Drivers can receive instructions that improve service quality and passenger confidence.

  • Door-to-door assistance and assisted boarding
  • Luggage assistance and mobility equipment
  • Meeting points and special care instructions

Special Educational Needs Transport

MyRide includes dedicated tools for SEN transport operators and local authority contracts.

  • School routes and passenger allocations
  • Driver and escort allocations
  • Route changes, attendance records, safeguarding information and emergency contacts

Healthcare & Patient Transport

Healthcare transport often requires higher levels of visibility, accountability and compliance. Operators maintain complete visibility throughout the transport process while reducing administrative workload.

  • Hospital appointments and patient discharge transport
  • Dialysis, outpatient and community healthcare travel
  • Specialist medical journeys

Passenger Escorts & Support Workers

Some journeys require additional personnel beyond the driver. Escort assignments remain linked to the booking and visible throughout the operational workflow.

  • Passenger escorts, support workers and carers
  • Medical assistants and education escorts

Driver Qualification Management

Accessible transport often requires specialist training and certifications. Only appropriately trained drivers can be allocated to relevant journeys.

  • Disability awareness and wheelchair handling training
  • Safeguarding and passenger assistance training
  • Medical transport training and council requirements

Safeguarding Built Into Operations

Passenger safety remains at the heart of mobility services. Every action remains recorded and traceable.

  • Passenger notes, incident reporting and escalation processes
  • Driver verification and DBS monitoring
  • Audit trails and emergency contact management

Family & Guardian Visibility

For vulnerable passengers, visibility creates reassurance and improves communication and trust throughout the transport process.

  • Journey status and driver information
  • Pickup, drop-off and journey completion updates

Real-Time Journey Monitoring

Mission Control gives operators live visibility across every active journey, helping teams respond quickly to changing situations.

  • Vehicle location, driver activity and passenger status
  • Journey progress, arrival times and operational issues
  • Potential delays

Flexible Scheduling For Recurring Transport

Many mobility services involve recurring journeys: school transport, healthcare appointments, day centre transport and community transport.

MyRide allows operators to manage recurring schedules without creating unnecessary administrative complexity. Changes can be applied centrally while maintaining full visibility.

Customer & Family Communication

Keep passengers, carers and families informed at the right time.

  • SMS, WhatsApp, email and push notifications
  • Live journey updates and automated communications

Reporting For Contracts & Authorities

Many accessibility services operate under contract with councils, healthcare providers and public sector organisations. Operators can quickly demonstrate service performance and compliance.

  • Journey volumes, punctuality and attendance
  • Driver performance and vehicle utilisation
  • Safeguarding records and contract KPIs

Built For Community & Public Transport Services

The platform adapts to the operational requirements of each service.

  • Wheelchair accessible and special educational needs transport
  • Adult social care, healthcare and community transport
  • Dial-a-ride, accessible taxi, patient transport and demand responsive transport

AI-Powered Mobility Operations

MyRide AI helps operators manage complex transport requirements and reduces manual workload while improving service visibility.

  • Passenger queries and journey information
  • Reporting, operational insights and scheduling support
  • Contract management and administrative tasks
