Subsidised door-to-door transport is a vital part of transport provision in Britain today. In both urban and rural areas, it is a vital means of accessing various public services, and for very many disabled people it is the only means of transport available.
Although mainstream public transport is increasingly accessible to disabled people, many will continue to depend on door-to-door transport for all or part of many journeys they make.
Any transport strategy that seeks to combat social exclusion must therefore seek to ensure that door-to-door provision is available and that it is affordable for those who depend upon it.
This report is an evaluation of four pilot projects designed to test in practice different approaches to integration or coordination of door-to-door services.
